I just got the new TSC flyer and noticed that the only King Kutter implement they had shown was a finish mower. All the other implements listed were Farm Force. I'm just wondering if they are changing their implement line now.

I noticed that at the TSC in Leesburg, VA the other day. What I really noticed, is they actually have tractors for sale now. MINOT brand. They have a 20HP, 25HP, 30 HP all with loaders. First time I saw TSC carrying tractors.

I have been to several different TSC's here in Central Michigan and they all had a large inventory of King Kutter Implements in stock.

Farm Force sure looks to be King Kutter exactly. Not sure if it is a rebadge of the product (maybe KK is a rebadge of FF)?

The local TSC stores here in Nebraska still carry King Kutter. I was just looking at a RFM and Box Blade on Tuesday.

The history is: At some point in time, the Implement manufacturers get fed up with dealing with TSC after a few years of returned items and low profit margins and decide to pull thier line. I dont know if that is what is happening there, however, here in Ky the brand of implements have changed many times over the years--Ken Sweet

I was in a TSC store Tuesday and, like the other guys, saw lots of KK implements sitting outside.

The TSC in harrisonburg VA carries a brand which I think was Farm Force, which was a division of Tarter Gate (tartergate.com).. They look very similar to the KK, but from looking at the website they dont appear to be the same.. The website now lists their 3pt brand as American Farmland now, but before they had it listed under as Farm Force..

Im curious at the durability of these...

As to the durability question -

My experience so far-

I had to return a new farm force landscape rake because the post holding the wheel bent during the 1st use.

I also have their red dump wagon. The rear gate absolutely is junk, and I usually end up just tossing it into the woods leaving the rear of the wagon open.

Like with most things, you get what you pay for......what a surprise
