Best For carver: Wood Carving Burr For Dremel

If you want nothing but the best reliable burr, then this product is the one you should definitely consider, as it manages to bring a lot to the table. These burrs are total game changers. Whether you're working with wood, plastic, drywall, rubber, fiberglass, or soft stone, they will be your go-to workhorse for any task. It is great for intricate details and small areas.

The impregnated burrs at the tip only last a short time before losing their "bite. It is a nice bit, gets into recessed areas quite well, initially, then the tip of the bit wears down too fast. This bit sheds the dust particles very well. It is designed to work easily and efficiently where other conventional tools fail. Their outstanding performance on a wide variety of materials will keep them locked in your favorite grinder.

Best For Metal: Kutzall Perfect Burr

Next on the list, we've got yet another product that manages to win our hearts. It's the kutzall perfect burr and it's widely considered as product that has the most suitable features. The top curve is nearly impossible to cut with a fret saw. This little carbide bit cuts the top round profile perfectly and works well on the flat areas as well and it's a LOT faster and more accurate than using a hand fret saw. They tend to load up at lower rpm's and don't put too much pressure on it, just let the speed and frequent passes do the work. It will carve smoothly and make curves easily.

The case they come in is really nice, and holds them secure. It is a very aggressive burr that removes lots of material. This easily saves hours of difficult knife carving.
