Thread: How and where do you hang your strop

I hang mine on the back of the bathroom door. It stays there no problem.

my set-up is quite unique lol. I've got a tv stand made from old treadle sewing machine legs with 3 inch thick walnut slabs for the 2 shelves. The sewing machine legs have holes in the top (where the origional top was screwed on) and that is where I've got my strop clipped. I used a clip (the type used on a climbing harness) which keeps it snug and the tv gives it enough weight that the table doesn't topple.

I screwed two large hooks into the underside of my formica countertop, on the side of the cabinet. I hang my paddle strop on one and my flat strop on the other.

I use a loop around 8" in dia. of clothesline size cord . I run the loop through the eye on the strop and put one end of the loop on the door knob on both sides of my bedroom door . This puts the strop , door knob , and door hinges all in line when I use the strop , and enables me to distribute the tension to both sides of the knob instead of just one side . When I'm done , I take the end of the loop off the front knob and hang it on the back knob , so that both ends of the loop are then over the back knob , with the strop hanging from it .

My strops all hang in the bathroom next to the sink on the left. I had a bronze 6 hook affair cast up from a pattern I made the fixed to the wall at nose height. This height works well for me though hip height does the trick for my pasted strops that are hung on the door with the same bronze hook/s.

Not being sure if the humidity of the bathroom would harm my strop, I screwed a small hook into the door frame to my computer room, right next the closet. I can strop my razor after shaving and store it on the top shelf of the closet. I don't leave my precious razors in the bathroom 'cause it's sometimes a little humid after a shower.

I am 1,73m tall and I have the hook for the strop 80cm from the bathroom floor
For me is easyier to strop if the strop has an angle

Well my sink area is separate from the bathroom so i hang my strops on the towel rack by the sink.

I bought one of Tony Strops after it cam with a Leather rope so I just hang it in the door knob in my room, my brothers are wild shower takers and they shave like if they were drowning lol but it's safe in my room.
