I have not seen any other brand to provide a proper circular saw blade storage, Wurth is the only one by now I have found, do you know of any?
That looks nice.
Many of my blades come in vendor packaging, like this one from Freud.

Yes, I know. Paper packaging do not work for tool accessories I am afraid.
I need a good storage system for my blades. Like that solution.

I just did another search on google and I found this, the brand is called Blade Buddy. You might like it.
This is another photo, it shows up on amazon UK but currently unavailable, maybe available in amazon US.
This is another brand called Blade Runner.
Yes, the Blade Buddy is available in US Amazon.
IMO, that is a great option if only three blades are required for storage. Edit, each drawer holds one 1/8″ 10″ blade, 8″ blade and 7¼” blade, for a total of nine appropriately sized blades.
But a solution like this custom table saw base, w/ a blade drawer appears more appropriate for people like me w/ many blades.

For workshop yes, but when you are on site and if you have to have spare blades in a tool box you would need a small storage solution.
I like the set up in the drawer but don’t have a drawer big enough. I could make one for the wall or something but don’t use them enough to justify taking the space up. Blade buddy is nice but expensive. Maybe I am just too cheap.

I don’t know how much is the price for Blade Buddy, I have cut my hands with bare blades a few times when I am in rush that is why I feel all tool accessories should be stored properly. There is a company called RosePlastic, they make most of the plastic tubes and containers for tool accessories for most brands, I will have to speak with them I think.
Some 3D prints for smaller blades, I like the design of it, quite simple and you can adjust the thickness of it before 3D printing according to the number of blades you want to store in.

If I had a 3d printer, that would be awesome and would like to have something like this. Now I am out to see if I can find someone with a 3d printer. To me, those are perfect. Simple.

3D printers are becoming more common by time, I have seen one that you can use your own waste plastic to 3D print whatever you want with. I think it is a good thing to have one at home, you can make specific design of anything you want, also if anything plastic from any tool or an appliance breaks you can make a spare yourself.
Diablo sells their circular saw blades in plastic holders. These aren’t the most sturdy, nor are they enclosed, but they provide protection from the blade itself. I usually buy them when Home Depot clearances out the 2 blade value packs. You would think there’d be a readily available storage/transport solution, though. I got a bunch of DeWalt blades on clearance a while back that came in a cardboard display box, and my Bosch and other blades tend to be sold bare or with (at most) a plastic edge guard.
