Is there a default keyboard shortcut to start a new Finder window?
If not, is there a way to assign one?
I tried System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts and created a new item for Finder, and assigned shift–command ⌘–F, among other things, but nothing worked.

By default, no, there's no keyboard shortcut to activate Finder.
Keyboard Maestro can do this though:
