I was thinking the same thing.
Some thoughts... Have you checked at just the edge? The edge can be straight but if there is slightly more meat above the edge and/or at the spine on one side of the tip, it'll make it look bent at the tip and will make the tip rise higher one one side than the other if the whole blade is placed on a flat surface. I always check at just the edge (using the back of a diamond plate as a flat surface). This'll also show if there is a bend at the spine but not the edge.
Or, the thing is just bent
