Greetings to the porch!

I own a drawknife that have a case of loose handles.  The tang that comes
through the center of it is beat over to hold them on.  It rattles around
pretty bad.  Anyone have any experience with solving this?  Pour epoxy down
the center?  Drive in shims?  What works?  The blade appears bent across
the length of it also.  Could it be straightened out?  I don't think it was
made that way on purpose.

Also, if there is a maker mark or stamp, where would one find it.  It
appears that if there were on mine, it eventually got ground off or never
had one.

Thanks in advance!!
