I just checked on the website of a french Tormek reseller, the SJs are 30% off. Which is about as high arebate as I've ever seen on anything Tormek.
Any idea why this would be ? Just a sales boost or are the SJs about to be replaced/discontinued ?
It could be that SJ inventories are too high. In other words, they made more than they can sell and now they're taking up valuable space in warehouses.
I've always considered them to be overkill. But I'm not a blade afficionado. I buy inexpensive knives and as far as I'm concerned I keep them sharp enough for use. To me they're tools, not show pieces. I could get my knives sharper and better looking with a SJ, but all that extra effort and expense is lost as soon as the knife is used a few times. That's what I think, anyway. I could be wrong.
The SJ-250 is now priced at €342 in the Netherlands.
295€ in France...

Yes, you are correct. My apologies. I am used to reading their site in French, I forgot.
They do deliver fairly cheaply to France, Belgium, Germany and possibly free delivery to the Netherlands.
