Well eve with the toe questionable it is still a nice razor and well worth cleaning it up a little and using it. Personally I would give it a long run in the tumbler and put it straight back in it's original scales and call it good. You will get some pitting and loose all of the black but it should look like a lovely old girl.
Here's the Greaves that I have that looks similar, as you said, concave, swagged.....
