If you simply hone it, and use it like that (with some special attention not to use the chipped parts of the blade on delicate parts of your face) the chips will disappear over time, with the natural consumption of the blade due to repeated honing. They are large, and it will take some years, but I know it works because I did it myself with some very old blades I own. Small chips disappeared in a year (say 5 to 10 shavings due to my large rotation), and it is quite safe unless the blade is distorted at the chips. Stropping with abrasive pastes also helps to preserve the shape of the blade.
Another way is using sandpaper: Removing a chip from a straight razor, Part 1 - YouTube
I did it with some blade, with full hollow grounds it's a fast method, but with wedges you must be careful and precise to avoid changing the blade geometry.
Good luck
