Which BB tool

Got a rare BB, and need a tool to take it off. I think its a Suntour. The Shimano BB tool is too big in diameter. It has 18 teeth. Identical on both sides. Any idea where I can find the tool for it? Thanks

I can't tell for sure from the picture, but it looks to me like a Phil Wood bottom bracket. I haven't ever bought a tool, because my lbs has one and I borrow it for the once in 10 years that I need to mess with a Phil. (I actually have one installed on one of my bikes...but it just never needs messing with).

Or you could get the pretty "shop" version of the tool.... it cost just a wee bit more....
