It absolutely is available. It's just powerful lasers are very dangerous to your eyes, and you better really know what you're doing.

You can buy a 1.5kw laser cutter for $35K on Aliexpress.

Available yes but it's still the realm of people with a good amount of disposable income such that they can drop 1-2k+ on a hobby.
