Do whatever you like, there will be lots of "Internet" experts who will be happy to agree with you. Remember though, they are not the ones on the end of the gun when it blows.
Even with low pressure or black powder loads there is no easy way to tell if a Damascus steel barrel is still shootable. Expert inspection by a well qualified practitioner and a proper proofing should come before shooting any gun of this type from the shoulder.
