I have never seen a plumber use any of those except the compression ferrule puller. That includes working around one who makes my tool acquisition disorder look mild. I expect they work, but are just not worth carrying around.
If you want to spend the money on tools, get some knipex cobras and pliers wrenches, assuming you don’t already have them. They’re generally useful, and better than channellocks and a crescent wrench for this type of work.
