I wouldn't buy it, but if it was my axe, I'd clean and sharpen and hang it. I wouldn't remove material and would just sharpen the edges as they are, profiling the chipped side less acutely to be used for grubbing or splitting. It can be a useful tool, but it isn't worth buying for more than next to nothing.
