If I cant get it off with the strap wrench, I just stab it with the screw driver and it will twist right off, but that filter looks like a t-rex was using it for a chew toy

Lol...I used A End cap style filter tool to start...That just spun around and wouldnt catch on the filter...Then I tried the screwdriver...And tore it all to hell. Then tried a swivel strap wrench...THEN Used this 3 pronged claw looking tool that finally caught the filter and I got it loose.

Nothing Like that at all...

It's specifically made for an Oil Filter.
