Hi Martyn,
I’m not sure about the specific compatibility of Record 043 and 044 blades, but Paul has mentioned in the past making his own blades from metal stock. I believe this was the link he used:

He has also put long chisels in in place of the blades in one of his blog posts. It sounds like you can get a lot of different blades to work with Plough Planes.

I’m hoping it’s not too difficult to find/make blades, as I just won a Stanley 50 on ebay myself, and it only has one blade of undetermined size and quality. Guess I’ll find out when it gets here.
