Where are these made?

Thank you for contacting Irwin Tools. The country of origin for this self adjusting wire stripper is Taiwan.

How can you tell which crimp area to use? The color codes on the tool show 2 "ranges" of wire gauge, but it looks like there are 3 crimp areas.

On the left there is a label ("INSUL AND NON-INSUL") that points the center of the two places to crimp, with the one closest to the pivot color coded for blue and yellow connectors (or 16 - 10 gauge), and the next crimp area for red connectors (or 22 - 18 gauge). The bump on the right side between the two is not meant for crimping.

does it cut guitar strings ? how about bike break cable

Get a pair of piano grade wire cutters to avoid ruining your strippers, as the chaps are saying, it's good for copper and electrical cables and not suited to spring steel and bike brake cables.

Anyone uses it for jewlery making? How is it? Thanks!

I've never used it for jewelry but it cuts wire very crisply and the nose has a flat crimper that would close small metal parts easily.
