Here are pictures
Buy another and send it off to be rehoned by a real pro...it's salvageable.
The reason I say buy another is a back-up is always need for when one needs to be touched up.
Well it a a cheap one from straight razors.com came with strop brush and soap for like 90 bucks so should I get a better blade anyway ?
+1 to what Harold said
I do not know how it shaves but for a new razor it has a ton of honewear and very wide bevels.
Get a $80 Dovo and you will be happy.
Were do I send it off to get fixed while I buy another ?

The right person can fix that for you. Glen fixed one of mine that was damaged similar to yours.:gl:
I have a backup for the back up of the back up in case the back up's back up needs a back up to the back up back up.
Just use sandpaper to get the chips out and then hone. There are videos on YouTube, give it a go.
That's a cheap (a couple of $) poor quality razor with a big markup. But if you're happy with it you can find somebody to fix it for you and continue.Quote:

I will never go back
Thank you for all of the input :)
Here I have a deal for you. I am no Glen or Lynn. But those nicks in the blade don't seem too bad. I'll give you a loaner razor and you send me yours. If it is as gugi says a cheap razor and not worth it to hone it you get to keep the loaner. If I can fix I'll send it back to you and you send me mine back. I will ensure the loaner will be shave ready. Just pm me if that sounds fineQuote:
