What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives both Plastic as the material and Maplewood Handle as the handle type. Treat the plastic entry as an unspecified material field rather than a definitive handle material. It describes the bristles as firm, while the technical bristle type is listed as Flagged Bristle. Confirm the specific construction if either distinction matters.
