Fork Handles

No, not four candles !

My trusty old fork with the wooden handle finally gave up the ghost yesterday and snapped mid shaft. Now, i know there are a plethora of new forks available but being the sentimental old boy that ive turned out to be, i would like to replace the handle on the one i have got. I can remember this being done by the good old hardware store, but with the demise of such establishments, i don't have a clue where to get this done anymore.

Can anyone advise me here ?

Thanks.

A good Blacksmith would do it. We are lucky to have one in a nearby Village and the things he turns his hands to is a wonder to see.

 

now where have I heard that saying before (4 candles or fork handles)lol

 

Thanks hornbeam, spot on.

Now where's my wallet !

Thanks Hornbeam - bookmarked! Can't beat a real forged old fork with an ash handle.

Nice one Geoff, you dont see stores like that anymore, not quite the same in B&Q.
Hard to believe thats over thirty years old now.
