Big Rikon Tool Sale Ends March 31, 2025
Just about EVERY Rikon Power Tool and accessory that we carry is now 15% off our regular price, but only through the end of March. You can save even more by adding our Starter Kit to the purchase of a Rikon bandsaw. Note: Rikon has also announced there is going to be an additional price increase beginning April 1 to offset recent new tariffs on Chinese imports, so please order during March to save on a new bandsaw or other Rikon Tool!
