There's nothing like an excellent vintage DE blade.

Something in the coating of some newer DE blades makes my skin burn the first and second time I use them then wears off. Its not quite a rash and it's definitely not razor burn. Just a really uncomfortable heat and itchiness after my shave. Not every brand either. I all but stopped using Feather blades because they do it to me. Took a long time to realize it wasn't my technique or any particular razor, its something on the blades. Some single edge blades do it to me too. Newer ones only though. Never vintage.

I had the same issue as you with some new modern blades giving me that uncomfortable heat and itchiness after my shave.

The only modern blades I have in my den didn't have any issue with uncomfortable heat and itchiness which are:-

ASCO Super Stainless (orange)
Astra Superior Platinum
Astra Superior Stainless
Gillette Nacet
Kai Stainless Steel
Perma-Sharp Super
Polsilver Super Iridium

Buy a 5 pack of blades each above for you to try them before you buy a bulk pack.

My favourite vintage blades are and I've got HEAPS that last a lifetime until I rest in peace.

Vintage NOS Gillette Stainless
Vintage NOS English Wilkinson Sword
Vintage NOS Gillette Super Stainless (spoiler)
Vintage NOS Wizamet Polsilver Brown
Vintage NOS Wizamet Super Iridium

I was lucky enough to purchase two Wolfman razors from their website a few weeks ago and they are both on their way to me. I also have a Declaration Grooming brush on its way to me also.
