Ever Ready 1912 newbie questions

Messages

I finally got around to picking up an Ever Ready 1912 as I have been reading so much about them. I have got some blades already, I picked up the following blades:

GEM Stainless Steel
GEM Stainless Steel PTFE coated
GEM Carbon Steel
PAL Blue Carbon Steel

And of I have the Corrux blades that came with the razor, they look perfect.

So the questions are:

1. Which of the above blades do you recommend starting with?
2. If I wanted to try the Corrux blades is there anything I should be aware of?
3. I have read about shimming the newer blades, do I need to do this in the Ever Ready 1912, or should I just try out the new blades as they are?
4. Are there any other blades out there that you can suggest that I try?
