What is the difference between the Tormek T-4 and T-8?

Both machines sharpen all common edge tools with the same jig system. The difference is in size and capacity:

Tormek T-4 – 200 mm grindstone, 120 W motor for intermittent use (30 min per hour), weighs 8 kg. For home and hobby use.
Tormek T-8 – 250 mm grindstone, solid cast housing with minimal play and an industrial motor for continuous use, weighs 14.8 kg. For those who sharpen a lot.

The T-8 Custom is a T-8 without stone and honing wheel, so you choose your own. The T-4 Bushcraft is a T-4 with a knife jig and axe jig in the box.
