Personally I believe the reverse would be Great. I Don't have it but Need it on Many occasions. When you are working on a carving with a Carbide rough-out bit on one side of the carving you are working against the grain and to have the ability to reverse the cut would work Magic. Get the reversable. The extra power is not a big deal. The wecheer and Foredom use all the same chisels and the Wecheer has more power. You should Not use Either for roughing out, only for detail, so it's a toss-up. I now have one of each which works well for me. All the Flexcut power chisels work with either. I would lean toward the Wecheer, and Treeline is Very generous with their replacement policy, so neither would give you much long term grief. Also if you order the flexcut chisels , call the order in and ask for the discount if ordering 5 or more pieces. Don't forget to tell them I sent you.
