Corded HK saw returning?

[LsDelancy]

I recently acquired a TS60 and thought the fact that it would fit on the FSK rail could be handy. Being that there is no way to lock the plunge mechanism into the plunged position I question this for quick crosscuts. I started looking into the HK saws only to find out that the corded version is no longer available. I have no interest in going cordless. I did a lot of internet searching, but couldn't find any information about a new corded HK saw becoming available. Does anyone know anything about this?

This guy is selling his HK corded:

And I think the Tools4Less dealer in Abingdon, Maryland had a corded HK the last time I visited (over a month ago now).

Still available down here in Aus, so hasn't been discontinued, just not available in the US any more by the look of it. Maybe a temporary situation??

Festool still offers it in their 2024 catalog but I haven't actually seen one for the last year or so. The Festool USA and UK websites also no longer offer it.

You may have to call around to locate something in stock.

I'm also selling my corded HK (keeping my cordless), though I can't remember if I actually have it listed on Facebook, on here, both, or neither right now.

Like the corded CT SYS, I don't foresee the corded HK55 making a return in the US any time soon.  Maybe they just need to empty a warehouse enough to justify filling another container to ship across the pond?

Both HK 55 and HK 85 listed on Festool.de and Festool.nl and widely available at dealers. Both 230V

If it was purely a 110V issue, I would expect Festool.co.uk to still have the 230V version.

The 120v versions are no longer listed. I may be getting a used one from another member though.
