New to the forum, new to straight razors.

I've inherited an old Clauss and have decided to start switching to straight razors. I'm on a tight budget and the blade is in decent shape (no rust or pits, only discolorization and gunk buildup) so I'd like to see if it's possible to restore its sheen, have it professionally honed and then start slowly making the switch.

Any Advice? Anyone local to the piedmont or triangle?
