    What I'm seeing is the toe honed much more than the heel. At that point I'd be coloring the edge side with sharpie and using a pair of calipers to scribe a new edge line so I could butter-knife it until it's parallel with the spine. The heel and toe would likely need a little reshaping after.

    It can be saved. But this looks to be a tick beyond regular honing from what I'm seeing in the pics. It might be better to set on the back burner until you've got a bit more time on the stones.
