I use those blades in present day.

When I put in a new blade, I keep the wax paper wrapper, then rewrap the discarded blade in said wax paper before discarding it.

Give or take twelve years into this endeavor, I've had zero issues with this system.

Why not just use the new wrapper for the old blade? That way you don't need to keep the wrapper until you throw the blade away

What are you going to wrap the last blade in if you forget to buy new ones?

Painter’s tape.

This is where that saying "one is none" comes in. Have enough blades. Buy more well before you run out

Just keep it in the razor, you can't change it anyway.

Why wrap it until you've bought new blades? Unless you're planning to stop shaving for years, in which case the blade might rust.
