Heh, heh, heh. If you like the Park Tool version, you'd LOVE using a genuine Shimano bottom bracket tool. It sets much sloser to the bottom brcket so it stays connected to the splines much better and allows you to use more muscle when loosening tight bottom brackets. Then I use the Park equivlent, with my torque wrench, when I reinstall the bottom bracket.
I also greatly prefer Shimano cable cutters to Park.
