Basically, I am looking for the round spring in an internal brass door
handle. It's 2 /12 turns, 22mm OD and made of 2mm wire. It has short
right angle turnouts on each end.

It seems like this frustrates a lot of people as the solution offered in
shops & sheds is to buy new handles.

I suppose they may be needed with handles, but I took a load out of brass
knobs - they made them too stiff. The internal lock spring was more than
sufficient, if you took care in lining up the knobs.
