Gee, I've always been able to remove my oil filter with my bare hand. I guess that's not normal.
I guess I've been lucky. I've always put them on and removed them by hand, no tools.

I use a strap wrench to remove my filter. It is a nylon band with a bar that 1/2 in drive fits into. I wrap the band around the filter, and then twist the bar to tighten the band. Once it is tight, with the 1/2 in extention on my ratchet, I am able to twist the filter until loose, and then remove by hand. Best thing since sliced bread.
