I hang my strop at either head height or just above waist height depending on where i am, i do lke at least a bit of uphill. I have to ut a hook in at my new house, thats going to be about solar plexus height, just because of where i have been allowed to put it (on a wall below a towel rail, in a position hidden by towels when not in use).

Jimbo, what do you use on your handbags then, just the cheap stuff?
