Default Size of cutoff blade for BXA tool holder

the blade size is specified in the Aloris catalog that you can DL from their
web site - 11/32nds sounds right - but check the catalog - if you have an
import, your needs may vary

Teach me about cutoff blades. The slot in the BXA size holder
measures 5/8" (actually 11/32") so it could take a 5/8 by 1/8 cutoff
tool, but it would be nice to use a narrower cutoff blade. What's the
smallest size that can be used in the standard BXA size cutoff tool
holder? Get the T type, tapered type or straight type of cutoff
blade? What's a good place to buy cutoff blades?
