Frustrating blade search for Ikon XD 52

I've had a heck of a time finding aftermarket blades for this thing. From an absurd amount of research, I believe the blades for mine should be the same as the ikon x, ikon xl, and gravely zt x (all 52 obviously) and I've looked for blades on all of those. I know the oem number of the blades is 04771200 which from what I've found has blade specs: Length: 18.00" - Width: 2.25" - 30 Degree .5 Offset - and 5/8" hole. I finally found a gator g3 blade that is the closest match I can come up with and I'm hoping some of the awesome experts on here can verify if the 93-601 blades should work.
 
My research tells me that the 04771200 blade DOES NOT cross to a Oregon 93-601. I could not find an aftermarket blade.
 
I know it doesn't come up is the cross reference that way. I was just hoping looking at the specs and how they match if maybe they would
 
Gravely doesn’t supply specs for its blades. You’ll need to take your blade, meas it and compare what you have to these specs.https://www.oregonproducts.com/en/blade,-bobcat,-gator-g3,-18%22/p/93-601

The specs I put in the original post are actually the one for the oem blades on mine. Length: 18.00" - Width: 2.25" - 30 Degree .5 Offset - and 5/8" hole

These are very close to the specs for the Oregon I listed and you linked. Difference is that the oregon is 2.5 wide vs 2.25 oem, and the offset is the same but I don't know about that 30 degree part
 
30 degree is the angle of the cutting edge. Personally I would not use a blade that is a 1/4” wider, due to weight difference, but I’m sure he who is smarter than me will beg to differ. Remember you are spinning them at high speed, which will affect torque differences an possible bearing wear.
 
I am in the same boat with my Gravely ZTX 52. What did you end up doing? Looks like I will have to settle for OEM replacement.
 
This is what I bought from Amazon last year and they work perfectly, actually cut better than the ones that came on my ZTX-52 when i bought it new. copy/paste the below into amazon search bar:
