Hello and welcome, Patrick. B&B is a great forum full of friendly, helpful shavers. You will learn a lot here.

For nicks, relax, slow down and be patient.

For razor burn, try a shallower angle (more cap on face and less vertical scraping) and less pressure.

Rest in Peace
Welcome Pat; You have certainly selected quality shaving gear! Possibly you are using too much pressure when you shave; If not, your technique and results will improve rapidly with experience.
