Need help identifying proper cable for Black and Decker hedge trimmer.

I've been using my grandfather's old hedge trimmer for a few years by wedging an even older, sketchy appliance cable in there, but that cable recently started shorting out. So, I'm trying to figure out what the heck this power connector is, so I can try and find a better-fitting cable.


See the photo below. It's this odd skewed cross shape with only two non-polarized prongs and a latch that is supposed to secure the cable. I guess it's from the 70s? None of my extension cables would fit into it. Trimmer is model 8104 Type 1. I googled this for a couple hours and all I found was this low-res photo of some unusually-terminated extension cable.
