Comments:
There are no issues that would affect the edge after sharpening.
Sentosai is a well-known brand for scissors, but they also produced razors. It appears they outsourced production at times, as I have seen examples with the Saneyo (実雄) inscription (I haven't heard of Saneyo forging scissors, so these were likely made by a different blacksmith).
My impression is that the steel is slightly hard. You'll need to strop it generously, or it might cut your skin.
