T1 availability

[MerryMadMick]

Hello.

I've been wanting to get a T1 that I can keep in the kitchen.  Talking to my usual Tormek suppliers they are unable to get stock for resale but I can get them from a kitchen supply retailer (Canada).  Would anyone know why a regular Tormek retailer would be unable to sell them?  I don't mind buying from the kitchen supply place but I'd rather support the business that supported me.


Thanks.

Good question, MMM.

Tormek decided to create three separate marketing divisions. One for "the woodworking machines" (the T8 and T4); a culinary division for the T1 and T2; and a bushcraft division for the T4 Bushcraft. My guess is that they may have felt a culinary customer might be better served by a specialty dealer.

Thanks for the info Ken. 

I own a shop, a kitchen, and enjoy bushcraft.  Restricting what one retailer can sell for marketing reasons seems shortsighted.  Less convenient for me at any rate.
