    But for the crack near mint.

    i have exactly same issue.
    This is what happen .Razor is near wedge blade. i never assumed blade could have crack.
    when i start to hone it i notice something is just doesn't look right.
    Took the blade to 100x magnification and saw the clear crack app 1/8 size.
    Now the best to do is this.
    Go head sharpen make it shave ready and shave test. See what happens.
    will you feel pulling, etc.
    this is what i think you are looking 100x --150x mag. Crack well could be so small you even don't feel while you shave?
    this is just one option.

    I agree with Sham, if it is a wedge, it may not make any difference because of the thickness of the blade. a full hollow on the other hand with plenty of flex sounds like a problem.
