If I were only going to buy one, I would get the smaller one--the inch-pound wrench that also reads Nm. In my experience it covers most of the things I have messed with, and the bigger bolts that tighten to a tighter torque...well, I feel comfortable tightening by feel. I sure would hate to strip or break some of the small stuff that torques to 9Nm.
