The profit on torches is the rebuy for more. You don't need to sink a lot in material, it just has to burn bright enough to sell.

Exactly, the guillotine is a durable/capital good. Yeah, you make more on one, but how many are you going to sell relative to torches and pitchforks?

My guillotines have DRM, non user serviceable parts and a mandatory service contract - cough - I mean you get free IoT and smartphone integration.

If you sharpen it youself, warranty is void.

I don’t know. I mean you can reuse a torch or you can make your own.

In this throwaway, instant satisfaction society? It's all about the price point. And the marketing.
