I just ordered it from Amazon, and it seems to be good quality. I'm not an installer, but like to have a good tool for any project I do. Anyone use this one? Thanks!

Those are the strippers I have been using for the last year and a half. They actually last a long time, I am on my second set right now. Just be careful if you adjust them, it is easy to set the blades to deep.

What would be a good cable crimper for RG-6? Also is there an article or a post that explains all the types of cable out there like triple shielded rg-6 that only takes the blue connectors vs say double shielded which takes the green connectors. I have searched but have come up empty handed.

Use a compression tool, not a crimper. You crimp the cable, you crimp your signal.
I've used one of these for about 2 years everyday now and I love it. http://tmt.stores.yahoo.net/id30eccoto.html
And if I remember correctly it was about $15 at Lowes.

I use the Belden 7916A cable. It has an additional foil shield but uses standard RG6 compression connectors (the blue ones) I had to adjust my Paladin 1257 LC CST stripper a little deeper to cut the foil shield, but I'm well satisfied with the results.
