Trivia
- Plungers worn on the head are an old-fashioned comedic reference to stupidity, or lack of intelligence. This could be yet another reference the the Pyro's supposed lack of sanity.
- The wood top of the Handyman's Handle is jiggleboned, meaning the wood handle shakes around when you run.
- The wooden handle wasn't snapped off originally; it was broken later to reduce the height of the hat. The texture still reflects this.
- This hat may be a reference to the Pyro's manliness due to the name. This hat may also be a nod that the Pyro is a female because he/she shows lack of skills of being a handyman since the Pyro has difficulty using a simple plunger.
- There is much speculation about the Pyro's private life, and as such, Valve has appeared to "toy" with the community with sly references to throw them off the scent; this hat could be another example of that.
