Personally I can’t stand Wilkinson Sword DE blades, tried them at various times throughout the years and every time they sucked. Harsh, not as sharp as they need to be but still enough to cause some bleeding. IMHO a sample pack like those of Razor Blades Club from Sweden are a good choice to find your ideal blade. I myself shave really comfortable with BIC Chrome Platinum, Perma-Sharp and Rapira Platinum Lux.
Shavettes are also very unforgiving, even more than a real straight razor. The only ones I’d recommend there are those who could take guarded AC blades, like Feather and KAI. But those are a bit more pricey than your typical turkish barber shavette.
