If it is flat, a Hone pro should be able to get a good edge. If it is not a flat piece of steel I would not shave with it. I bought a razor once, a vintage E Morris prosperity, that was actually bowed. Fortunately I was giving it away to a guy named E Morris who will never shave with it. (He knows why too) I just gave it as a lark since his name was on it.
