How can I clean my blades?

Yeah, simple question, it's the title... How can I clean my blades? The are starting to have some some of bacteria on them and I don't want to get infected...

[DarkHorse4eva]

you could just clean them with clear water and soap. it'll also remove blood(if you use them for cutting) so if somebody find your blade, they won't know you cut

[xXoblivionXx]

yeah, you can wash them, or just get new ones to prevent a bad infection. But honestly, you should try to use this as an excuse to try and stop cutting, it's hard at first but it gets easier. Self harm is a viscous cycle, try to get out of it before it screws you over.

alchohal

Wash them very carefully, I once got infected like that once, my arm looking like a freaking balloon :/

Use soap and very hot water, and if possible some alcohol.

i dont clean them. they are all bloody. i know it isn't safe or hygienic and gross but personally i dont care what happens to me when I am cutting so i never think of cleaning them. besides by cleaning them, i feel i would be admitting to my self that i will do it again and therefore will never find another method. but alcohol is best i suppose.

Soap and water. But in all honesty you should quit cutting. It's a bad habit and it is unhealthy.

Wash them with diswashing soap and hot water, very thoroughly, and then wash it off with cold water and clean it with un used tissues.
Also, clean your skin before and after cutting.

Thanks guys! I was putting the in vinegar... I don't know if it kills bacteries but yeah... I try to stop cutting but I need to wash them. I'll try to find some alchool and put them in... Or I'll just wash them with soap and hot water. Anyway, thanks to all of you.
