Thanks, don't really want to go the epoxy route, I think it will be even uglier (though safer) than it currently is.
Thanks also to @Dammit and @Greenbank - I have some old jeweler's files, these might work, and replacement is not not an option as she actually has another but apparently the handle has a slightly different shape that is not as comfortable...
With two different colours and textures involved I would not be capable of pulling off something that would satisfy me, nevermind my wife.
I’d still rather try taking the rough edges off.
