you can get them on eBay brand new for like $20. I got one there and it worked just fine. I'd recommend the handle with it myself, since you need slight downward pressure along with the side twisting. But, many people get away without the handle.

My husband made his own handle at work.

If youre cleaning up old threads its best to use a thread file. This will "dress" the bad threads without cutting into the good metal. A die will cut into the metal and make the threads loose.

Not true, in addition, it is probably easier for a novice to cause damage with a file.

Well,Allrighty then. I think a novice would most certainly do more damage with a die. I’d think it would take an extra extra heavy hand to destroy threads with a THREAD FILE. I’ve used both many times over the years
