These are the cotton/nylon blend in black, white, hot pink, pink, red, light purple, and purple
I guess these are really roller laces, but man do they look like fun for someone like me who isn't competing.
I can't believe I missed this information from Guardog, a company that makes blade guards.
Catalog: http://bluetoad.com/publication/?i=297935
How to measure and cut two-piece guards: http://guardog.ca/cuttingguide.pdf
They sell replacement parts (springs, loops, straps)

Titanium Beach http://www.tibeachtech.com (limited production, uncommon, so maybe irrelevant to your list. Also, a skate tech I know said their (titanium) blades take a very long time to sharpen on standard sharpening wheels.)
Jerry's Skating World is a retailer, but they also make figure skating blades under the "ISE", "Jerry's ISE", "ISE Sterling" and "Sterling blade" labels: http://www.jerryskate.com/Products/BladesSkates/blades-skates1.html
There are a number of low end figure skate and blade manufacturers that mostly aren't worth mentioning here.

ISE blades were made by (or for?) Jerry's Skating World (https://jerryskate.com/skates-and-blades)
They are out of production, but there is still a large backlog of Sterling blades available through many retailers.

Just took a look at this new website. It's totally unrelated to the original Skate Science that designed and sold skate blades (manufacture outsourced to Step at the time). This new company is geared towards training, not equipment. Too bad, when I first read your post, I was hoping that the blade manufacturer was rising from the ashes.
We had another thread discussing step skates
https://skatingforums.com/index.php?topic=7802.0
But that website
http://stepskates.com
now redirects to
https://ca.ccmhockey.com/en/Skates/Step-Steel-Blades
which I guess is the Canadian CCM distribution or manufacturing site (?). The only blades they now sell are hockey blades.
This company says they still have Step Steel figure blades in stock:

And here is a lot of 6 pairs of Step Steel figure blades for $250.

Quote6 pairs of blades by Skate science/ Step
1 x 10.5 double triple
2 x 10 double triple
1 x 9 dance
1 x 10.25 synchro
1 x 10.5 synchro
Those are likely closeout or surplus prices, so may no longer be made.
And then there is Blade Science

At first I thought they were the same company as SkateScience. But no. They design blades that cushion landings.
Yep, lot's of consolidation in this niche business. Step mainly manufactures runners for hockey skates. They also had their own line of figure skate blades, as well as being contract manufacturers for Skate Science and Eclipse. Step is now owned by CCM. And Jackson Ultima is now owned by Sport Maska, the parent company of CCM.
Step no longer lists their own line of figure skate blades; Skate Science went poof; and since Jackson Ultima is a direct competitor of Riedell Eclipse, Step no longer manufactures Eclipse blades. It would be logical for Step to manufacture Ultima blades, but who knows? Corporate mergers often do not lead to logical processes.
Just a note. The Jackson boot website you gave at Jacksonskate.com is right. But Google may find JacksonUltima.com, where all the boots are marked as sold out - because that's for internal Jackson use, and they don't want customers to order from there. Yet the latter is the customer site for blades, AFAICT.
