If the knife had been sharpened by David ( Evil D) or any of the guys I know here that are well trained in the art of sharpening it wouldn't bother me in the least. But if there are any marks or smudges on the blade or handle then that changes the game entirely.
Overall if you've got a real collector piece it's best to just leave it alone and play it safe.
Maybe I do it wrong, but the edges I have made, look pretty different, compared to the new ones, Spyderco puts on the blades. More so with an PE but also with an SE.
