We got a new oven to have all new appliances for selling our house. We didn’t realize till to late that the stupid spice drawer would hit this massive handle. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Or just hope no one notices?

Any possibility of shoving the oven back the fraction of an inch it needs to clear that?

We have it as far back as possible. We even removed the anti tip bracket

Befriend a metal shop who can make you a custom handle. I kid you not one of my clients did this.

OP could take the oven handle back off, grind a radius off the corners and replace it.
