You could just follow my advise in the OP. The clamps I use make the job quite simple. A small investment up-front. Clamps positioned correctly also allow easy cleaning (seepage) of the handle. You will also see a full length crack, and double crack repaired.I'm about to try and fix a handle with an end-to-end crack and could use some advice on clamps. The finish on my handle is in good shape but the tube seems to be very "sprung" (i.e., a wide crack that is hard to close by hand). As a result, I'm not sure that I can get away with just zip ties or, at least, need something to hold the crack closed until I can sufficiently tighten the ties. Any suggestions?
I don't use zip ties. Marine epoxy is also easy to use, and does not expand.
