need some guidance on my Kodiak wk180c

I can confirm that size M6 cap head bolts work fine. 25mm is about the right length. 20mm also works if you want to go a little shorter.

I don't have a 3D printer but I'm sure someone could easily print a "grip" to thread onto the bolt or something to make this more "finished"
I will probably just put on a rubber washer and plasti-dip the bolt head a couple of times to build it up and make it a little more comfortable.

get 50 of different length for $19. They are advertised as grade 12.9 which apparently is a good grade of tensile strength...but of course made in China YMMV

The Spectre charging handle is precisely this... a hex cap bolt with a 3D printed knob threaded onto it.
 
If the threaded rod is in the carrier, you can used a smaller drill bit and drill the centre of the broken handle out. Use a "easy out" sort of a left handed twist bit to extract the busted rod. These handles are crap and constantly spin off. A high school kid could make a better one in ten minutes. m6 socket head plus some lego bit. lol
