Looks good but kind of expensive,Just out of curiosity how would you reseal the tins to be airtight so food you refill it with would be safe

Cheaper than buying infinite tins haha.
To reseal it up, could use any number of techniques. Personally, I'm more inclined towards silicone and gaffs-tape, but I'm sure there will be other much more knowledgeable people with better suggestions.

I have been using one of those for nearly 10 years. they are nice.
The tins are not really "reusable" but the way the lids come off makes it nice if you want to use half can of soup today and the other half tomorrow, that sort of "reuse".
It is also handy if you salvage tins for use as mess kits and such. It eliminates any sharp edge around the inside of the tin.
I am old school and never throw out a coffee tin and have to force myself to throw away large #10 size cans.
