X-ACTO 24 blades?

Anyone own/use a Gene Green's Oval Machine to cut round/oval mounts?

I've got one and the recommended blade is an X-ACTO #24 blade.

I've run out of blades and can't seem to find anyone that stocks the replacements.

Does anyone know what other blades might be compatible with the X-ACTO ones?

I've looked at Excel blades but the one that seems to be recommended as an alternative to the X-ACTO blade isn't really because the bit that sticks out of the handle is wider than the X-ACTO version (i.e. it is tapered whereas the X-ACTO one is a straight bit of metal) which is important because more of the blade fits inside the clamp on the Oval Machine than fits into a knife handle.
