The chin

I can get a good shave with a straight everywhere but in the chin. It’s the only place I ever nick myself. Any chin tips?

Two things come to mind.

Attack from different angles, or grow a goatee.

I haven't shaved my chin, in a long time. But I do remember having to come at it from multiple directions, in short passes.

I also choked up on the grip of blade. Holding more towards the center of the spine.

First pass from edge of mouth to center of chin.
Second pass from under chin up to lip short strokes holding blade between my thumb and fingers.
Third pass from lop down.
Stretch skin as much as possible and have a moist lather.
Good luck

Short straight strokes with no pressure. Let the razor do the work!

As bouschie said, keep the skin well stretched. If I get lazy at the chin area and don't stretch properly, I will get nicks for sure.

Indeed, good stretching is key. A sharp razor and a LOW shave angle are slso important. I shave in a single pass, and the point of the chin I always go sideways, usually left to right. The front of the chin I go N to S, which is pretty much WTG, and underneath I always go S to N, which under my chin is more or less ATG. So my own shave kind of ignores the WTG first, no matter what, rule and the three passes rule. BUT, I couldn't do this without a sharp razor.

When you shave N to S, or downward, over the point of the chin, you are following a fairly tight radius and it can be easy to give yourself a nick there, until you have considerable experience. Going L to R, or R to L, gives you a gentler curve to follow.
