Check out the YouTube videos on bolt handle threading.

It's a pretty easy DIY project if you have a grinder, file, Threading Die, and patience.

Did one in about 2 hours start to finish and used a Die I borrowed from my son.

Just don't grind any farther up the handle than what the handle will cover and don't sweat imperfect threads. They'll all be hidden under the new handle. Use some loctite to keep the handle from backing off.

If you have the tools (and patience) cost is ZERO.
