Default 95 accord ignition switch

The ignition lock cylinder is worn out I think, have to wiggle the key to get it to turn, key is worn but a new cut one would probly be the same, I hate to have 2 separate keys for this car, if I turn the wheel and lock the steering wheel when I try to start the car it takes forever to get the key to turn.

You should be able to get a new key cut according to the VIN from Honda for under $10. The 95 accord doesn't have the security chip, so no programming is required. It is definitely worth a shot.

Using a lubricant like graphite on the key may help unbind the pins in the lock cylinder.

Yup, I bought a new key from my local dealer for my 97 Accord for 7 bucks plus tax. Very reasonable to me. Like PAhonda said they don't use a chip in them. I think chipped keys started in 98. Those are a little more expensive, and you need to take the vehicle to the dealer to have them program them. The cost was 70+ tax for a spare for my wife's 2000 Accord.
