Looks very uneven ..
im thinking the back of the spine might be what is uneven.. the hollow grind might be off too.. i'd guess that it'll hone up just fine.
"what is this razor??"
That razor is a razor!
Honestly, I wouldn't worry about the grind unless you can't get it to take an edge and need to find a reason why.
If its from a reputable seller, they'll make it right if there is a problem. If its eBay, you asks your questions (of the seller), pays your money, and takes your chances.
I doubt there are many perfectly ground razors out there, but minor grind issues seldom matter at all.
Reground by an amateur? Lots of wedge razors (especially Sheffields) were reground later to a more or less hollow ground shape. If the blade gets too hot during regrinding it loses its hardness.
