Get yourself a whetstone and regrind the tip into the camber of the knife. It'll be good as new.

That's how you fix it. If it's a small break, don't really worry about it. It will wear in gradually as you sharpen over time. If it causes you a problem in completing a cut, then definitlely fix it. Any sharpening service could grind it in for you quickly.

Ti repair the tip, grind from the top (spine) of the blade as well as the edge.
