Most hand tools have a wood handle that is kept in place by a retaining rivet that should be visible from the back of the tool.   By removing the rivet the wood handle can be easily removed.  If you have removed the handle past this rivet then you may want to try inserting a long wood screw into the broken stub and then clamp the head of the screw tightly into a vice.  Use a mallet to hit the head of the fork away from the vice and screw.
Hope this works for you.
