Gecko are you referring to story mode, or survival mode? I'm playing story mode for the first time and have looted the first town of Milton seemingly from top to bottom and haven't found a hacksaw. Is it possible there isn't one? Seems like a strange developer choice.

Looking on another thread presumably about survival mode, I see the saw can sometimes spawn in these locations so I just double-checked them all, and no saw.:

- on a chair behind the cash register of the gas station
- on the outside workbench of the Paradise Meadows farm
- in the Trailer between the stand-up mattresses and the metal shelf

Would really like to find the saw before proceeding with the story but I'm ready to give up.

There should not be any hacksaw in Story mode Episode 1.

There might not even be a hacksaw in Milton in story mode. There are quite a few differences so it's best not to base your story mode playthrough compared to survival sandbox. You'll probably find one in episode 2. I wouldn't worry, it's not going to screw up your progress on anything.

Story mode tends to lead you toward what you need if you follow the tasks/quests.
