• a handle member having an implement connecting portion, a shaft portion, and a gripping portion, said shaft portion being substantially straight and having a first and second shaft end, said implement connecting portion being substantially straight and in rigid connection with said first shaft end at an angle of between twenty and thirty-five degrees, said gripping portion having an arcuate portion having a first arcuate end in rigid connection with said second shaft end and a second arcuate end in rigid connection with a substantially straight handle end portion, said arcuate portion being disposed along an arcuate path defined by a radius sweeping an angle of between one-hundred-twenty and one-hundred-eighty degrees and lying in a plane defined by said implement connecting portion and said shaft portion;
• and
• an implement connecting fitting assembly having an implement connecting portion including a threaded first end adapted for connection with a conventionally threaded cleaning implement head and a second handle receiving end adapted to receive therein said implement connection portion of said handle member, and a compression ferrule that threadably fits over said second handle receiving end of said implement connecting fitting to compress said second handle receiving end about said implement connection portion of said handle member.
