Default need help restoring my recurve

Hi i bought a recurve a few months ago it is a used Dan Kenshalo 60 amo, it says made in 2001, a wonderful work of art with inlayed wood on the grip. it shoots well however it could use some TLC, some of the lamanat looks chiped by the grip and its a bit rough on the top were string goes on ,bit of a sharp edge were a sliver of wood seems to have been chiped out due to who knows what also seems just a tiny bit warped. any one know of some one in calgary alberta who could restore it back to close to new. i love the bow i looks great but im worried in a few more months of shooting it daily it will become a wall hanger to just look at.
Any info would be great. its all wood with i think a thin bit of fiberglass backing but not sure. just want it restored so i can shoot it for years to come.
