No nicks or weepers - there's a first time for everything

Unless I'm forgetting one, this afternoon was my first 3-pass shave plus touch-ups in 4 months with no nicks or weepers! Gillette Platinum (which didn't go well at all on my first try 2 months ago) in my Henson Al-13. A small bit of stubble left in trouble spots prevents this from being BBS. Some mild irritation too, but nothing too bad. And it took a good 30+ minutes, which is longer than I'd like to spend. Still, gotta give this at least a 7.5/10! 😎

Had to share here, I told the dogs but they weren't all that interested.
 
congratulations mate.. it only gets better from here on in.. as your technique and lather improve, bbs without irritation will become the norm
 
That's evenly to hear. I've done the same thing, come back to blades I had previously tried only to get a better result. Happy shaves!
