best dremel / multitool for cutting 1-2mm metal sheets (and other hobby uses)

I want to get a dremel for some computer case modding, to cut out the mesh air vents to allow for much smoother air transfer (mainly to limit noise), and a few other stuff.

I was wondering which mini tool would be best bang for buck.

I've got the dremel 300 in my sights, but there's £10 difference in prices for ones that looks pretty similar.

Also there are other competing brands that are cheaper

Which one should I got for?

Also are these any good for knife sharpening?
