Response to Orthochromatic Film

The sharpness you admire in vintage photographs is largely due to the negative size and limited enlargement, if any (most were contact prints). Ortho film in itself will not give you a sharper print. If you like the look of ortho film, try panchromatic film with a #44 filter. An 80A or 80B color-conversion filter will also give an ortho effect. That way you have both options with one film.
