Have two 5-6 cu ft wheel barrows, each with a broken handle. I don't have appropriate hickory, but do have several 5" X 5" X 10' rough cut ash.
Would ash be reasonably strong/durable for making handles? I'm suspecting so, since ash is used for baseball bats. It's been a long while since I've looked at the ash, but I suppose there is some straight grained stuff among the 5Xs.
Thanks.

I'm thinking construction grade 2x4.
Good for a few loads but not worth the effort to install as they WILL
end up breaking - and the splinters are no fun.
Yeah, nix that idea LOL. I forgot that they would have to be cut in half.
