Just got the Territorial seed catalog. They are offering grafted tomato

I did some of my own last spring, using "Beaufort" rootstock seeds from
Johnny's. Did OK, but last year wasn't a bad blight season. If you're
doing your own grafting there is a learning curve. The smaller utility
knife from Home Depot works nicely....razor sharp, with break-away segments
when it gets dull.
