I agree, but for me this is a good razor for shaving.I have a mint one and it gets pretty sharp.
I shaved with it a few times in the past ... ok... it is mostly a collector's item in my opinion.

The waffle shelving material is fairly thin. Not paper thin but close. I don’t think the original backing was paper thin. Regardless, if you consider the way the spindle/ friction assembly works, even a slight difference in thickness shouldn’t matter because the blade will be pushed flat against the strop and the spine of the blade will set the proper stropping angle. Also, paper wouldn’t provide any shock absorption which I suspect the original backing did. Do you disagree? And I’m unable to find any NOS Rolls strops on eBay, just whatever comes with used Rolls sets.Use some kind of paper, otherwise the sling will be lower by about 1 mm. You can use a thin piece of leather and shoe glue. In general, the strop can be purchased separately on eBay in new condition. They are in the best condition and ready to use.
Well, I found the store on eBay, but no listing as you posted. Looks like it was sold.I agree with you, it is now on sale in Italy. It is forbidden to provide links, so I will provide a screenshot.View attachment 1781508
