I would say reverse barbell curls but out of the ones listed i would say, forearm curls
Also, last week i went rock climbing (indoor) with my cousin and my forearms have never hurt so bad in my life.

Rack Pulls with as much weight you can hold and hold it for as long as you can.

Wrist curls and reverse wrist curls with DB's. Also, my gym has a plate loaded machine called a Gripper that works well if you use it correctly.

Reverse Curls (Thumbs out)
Side Hammers (Thumbs out)

Standing barbell wrist curls in front

Workout #2
Rope Pulls elbows in (1 1/4" thick, 10' long, hooked to a pulley at lowest level seted on the floor)
Rope Pulls elbows out
Plate Toss
Plate Pinch (Use Min 3 plates for the width)
DB Toss (Silver DB's standing on end)
Rope Pull-Ups
You can effectively hit the forearms by training hands and wrist also. I find that is the only way to strengthen and grow the entire forearm...Ensure to only train hand and wrist once every 4 days to begin with until you can handle it or you will find yourself overtraining...I directly and indirectly train my forearms everyday...Using ropes is an ideal way of tackling all of these areas with great results...

bb wrist curls are a great movement for the forearms, as for your question there is
"no best" exercise.
