Otherwise, I made handles from the wood of the exotic wood window frame which was removed for double glazing.

I think like Macro that this repair should not last very long given the type of stress.

Wait & see...what damages a merlin are bad hits (handle on the wood to be split), not hits on target! (a bit like men!! Huh Macro! )
It cost me 4 bolts (stainless steel and Neilstop please!), 35cm of galvanized tube (recyclable if necessary), 1 bit of cutting disc and a few grams of PU glue...and 2 hours of work...
Not a big risk eh!
I'll tell you again when I've split my first stere (or not) !

What is the connection between the beers, the stere and my magnificent competitive Merlin?

Yes, it is better to avoid drinking before splitting wood.

Re: I broke my Merlin wood! Repair and galvanized steel armoring!
I'm telling you that it's going to break for the good reason that being the worst lumberjack of wooden handles, I broke dozens of them; my father slapped me hard behind the ears every time I broke one one day. where I bought a Leborgne handle I never took a slap again and with us it was not one or two steres per year that we sold but rather between 70 and 80 steres that we sold per year. bobo d'Amboise and the handle that I advise you to buy you adapt it to your Merlin by giving it a sander

Re: I broke my Merlin wood! Repair and galvanized steel armoring!
Soldering the top sleeve to the merlin iron isn't a bad idea, but the zinc isn't going to make things any easier. As for assembly, I do it a little differently: I tend to split the sleeve and adapt it to the handle in one piece (but it is possible in two...), then I tighten strongly in the vice to bring the metal closer to the wood and I weld two staples across to hold it in place...
I noticed the skew of the slit in your handle and I think it was an initial weakness. Normally the wood fibers should be parallel for maximum strength.
