I don't want to break this part so thought I would ask before really wrenching on it. Is the wood ball on top of the handle screwed on or is there an epoxy in there. I tried screwing it off but did not want to budge, and like I said I really don't want to break it.

if it floats it's not sunk

They are just screwed on but, the aluminum treads can be corroded. Take it easy working the knob back and forth. Some penetrating oil (50% ATF and 50% acetone) will help.
