I have a vintage cast iron 8" Union hacksaw with a damaged brass ferrule on the wood handle. I want to replace it but I am unsure how the handle was fastened unto the saw frame. Maybe it is screwed on or pressed on like a file handle. Would anyone here have any experience with this?

Did it pull off or do you need the new piece or insert? If it's a threaded part why not make the part and epoxy it in? Ferrules on the outside were usually pressed on , different things may even be pinned thru or dimple near top end by wood.
