Personally, I will not fly with ANY damage or manufacturing defect on any one of my props.
It is only those four spinning things that keep your aircraft airborne. If I see any stress cracks, damage, or anything strange on any prop it goes in the trash.
Your call though.

No, but they would be safe if they took 4 weeks to arrive... just kidding.

You are going to spend a lot of time in the plane of rotation, and if anything comes off that prop, it is going to be traveling at the speed of pain, and possibly stitches or blindness. So in my opinion all props need to be perfect or I don't spin up the motors.
