The origin is actually in terms of theater. When an actor/actress is supposed to cry in a particular scene they use the term "To make Crocodile Tears". Since crocodile's can't cry, it's sort of an inside slang between people of the theater. (The only way for Crocodile's to cry is for them to fake it).

Croc bidente is the under belly of the croc where the smoothest surface is... making ideal hyde for crafting into merchandize...wallets, etc. Other surfaces of croc become too rigid and "bumpy"... Not exactly -- crocodile bidente is made of processed "fibers" of crocodile, but not the pure skins. The fibers are combined with other leather by-products and imprinted with the pattern of the belly skins. Every item I have seen that is labeled "crocodile bidente" has a very high polish with a synthetic feel. Crocodile bidente products are usually quite expensive, and very sturdy, but just not quite "genuine" crocodile.
