If it were mine, i would do a couple of things. I would take it to a coarse stone (not grinder) and take 2-3mm off the edge by honing at about 45 degrees. Then re-hone and shave.

If it is still a bad HT, you can still learn from it. Make a pattern off it. Then, if it were mine I would put it in a vice straight up and down and break it in the vice to see what the grain is doing. That way not all is lost and you can "see" what is wrong.
