As far as cartridge bottom bracket tools go, the best is Shimano's tool, because of its low profile. On a stubborn cup it's less likely to slip off because you're applying force closer to the BB. If you're going to use a socket handle, the Pedro's tool and the Park BBT-22 work well enough. For years Park sold the BBT-2 which was an absolute piece of garbage, then they copied the Pedro's tool and now it's fine.
