I went with my father to the local MG specialist for new blades for his 
'73B.  He pulled out some generic style of blades on just zinged them to 
the correct length using a band saw.  Worked beautifully!

If you are replacing the blade inserts only, just buy a set of 20" refills,
and cut them in half.  These refills are cheap, and one package gives you
two sets of refills.  If you need to replace the entire blade, I think your
stuck.
