believe it or not, the first one is what i use more. 90% of the time if i can get my hand on the filter, i can get that wrench on there... and with way more leverage and grip than my bare hand, if i cant get it off, it was put on WAYYY too tight.
but like i said, it is awesome to have both.. i also have a strap wrench like this

that i got from god knows where. its nice for when the one that caught your eye is too small for the real big filters. kind of cumbersome getting it all wrapped up and tight when you are on your back tho. better than nothing, that's for sure!
I use a pair of these as my main set of oil filter pliers, and something similar to this if a filter really wants to start some drama. Something like this socket type strap wrench pretty much always works as well, is cheap, and is easier to fit than the strap wrenches with the big plastic handles built in.
