First use of the Seville Omnibus base and I couldn't tell the difference from the old base (Excelsior?) Also first use of a new brush and as it's my birthday a couple of squirts of EdT to finish. Wonderful.

I couldn’t compare with the Flexi Lee. I like the YA. I’ve not had a bad shave with it yet.What’s your take on the Yaqi adjustable. I’ve heard mixed reviews? Is it the final cut version? Does it compare well to the Flexi?
I hadn't realised that. Has it always been in Belfast or is that a recent move?Office in Northern Ireland

I’m unsure mate
Hopefully others will tell you better than me.
I only have 5 Wickham and all say Belfast
Maybe due to the fact that N Ireland is still part of the European single marketIt's a (more) recent thing ... none of my Wickham's says this. The soap does still say "Handmade in England" so guess he's still over here and still making the soap. The Belfast address is of a shared creative workspace venture, so ... a business address?
Far, far too much green in that setup. What possessed you, mate?Razor = Merkur Progress
Blade = Treet Carbon. ( 3 )
Brush = Peregrino By PAA 24mm Rosewell Grey
Soap = Wickham 1912 Shamrock Tweed
with matching balm
Splash = TOBS Eton College Collection
View attachment 85078Another Cracking shave tonight with this multi cultural soap
Office in Northern Ireland
Made In England
Based on Southern Ireland &
Used by a Scotsman lol
I wanted to go with the Pregress again just to get the feel of it.
A heavy razor by all accounts and it times a tad aggressive on setting 3.
Nevertheless i enjoy using it and a 3 pass shave was effortless.
I’m unsure if i like these treet blades so will need to try something i like in the progress to decide properly.
The soap was first class for me and a first as it just arrived this morning from The Gentleman’s Groom Room Dundee.
It has a bit of sentimental value as one of the notes is Iris which was my mothers name.
