does this crimp Cat 6 cables

The answer is yes, it does crimp both cat 6 and cat 5 grade RJ-45 connectors. While the connectors are different internally, from the outside, they are identical.

I've never stripped a cable with the crimping tool before. Does this crimper do a good job at that?

hey Zack! although this tool will strip the plastic sleeve from the Cat5 cable I never use this. not sure whether you know this or not and pardon me if I'm stating the obvious but you don't strip the individual strands on Cat5 cable. anyway, I use a little yellow cable stripper to "strip" the plastic sleeve from the Cat5 cable, if you like I can find it for you, it's a simple yellow plastic tool that's around $7 I think. you place the Cat5 cable in the tool, it clamps down and you twist the tool around the cable 2-3 times, works well. I've never used the tripper in the crimping tools, they always cut into the strands too much imo

Will this work on shielded RJ45 connectors?

no, it fits only unheralded connectors
