You could do it but you could also damage the blade. If you ever wanted to sell it you'd likely drasticaly reduce the value, even if you did a good job of it.

One option is to send it to Robert to professionally alter the point.

Another option is to try shaving with it as is, albeit with absolute focus and total attention to where the point is at all times.

I shave with spike and French points, Spanish points in that manner, and only learned to do so at the expense of blood and skin.
