    Default Irreparable Damage?

    Hi, I've been shaving with a safety razor for a long time, and I recently decided to switch to a straight razor. I thought it would be nice to get an older razor, just because the concept seemed nice to me...I went ahead and bought a Goldedge on ebay that wasn't documented very well...I knew I was taking a gamble, but the pictures made it seem like it might be repairable (the seller was selling it more as an antique than a razor though...). I ended up paying $30 dollars...

    I just got it in the mail, and it seems to have been poorly used/honed...or something...the blade has a sort of "S" shape to it. I really like the look of it, and think that I could clean it up pretty well, but I was wondering if the damage to the blade could never be undone (I think it is doubtful). Could somebody with a little more experience (I have none...) tell me what they think about the possibilities of this blade?

    Thanks in advance...
