Yes, it would be worthwhile to polish and etch this knife. From the way the blade has oxidized you can already tell that the blade has an inserted edge of high carbon steel. Probably why it cut so well. A polish and etch will reveal a Hamon along the cutting edge and then the body of the blade should reveal some lamination. If you decide to proceed please share the results.
