First off, congrats on the yellow score!!!  As far as straightening the handle, I've only had one instance where I needed to straighten a badly bend handle like yours & this worked quite well. You'll need two 2"-3" chunks of thicker steel and a c-clamp. Put a piece of steel on top & under handle.  Put the c-clamp on & start tightening.  Should do the trick.
