Hmmm...
Reading about the Lambert/Viscount forks.

Lambert & Viscount bikes: About those Lambert / Viscount Death Forks

The issue they apparently had was that the steel steer tube ended at the top of the crown, and was simply pinned to a fork extension.

The "Type 3" fork had the steer tube that extended through the crown, and the brake bolt went through it.

The OP's fork is probably a different brand, but hopefully has the full length steer tube similar to the later generations of Lambert forks (and many composite forks today).

Whether one wishes to ride it or not would be personal preference. It would be worth reviewing information on forks & bonded joints.
