It's supposed to mostly be randomized but some locations may have guaranteed loot.
Do you mind sharing the location of the loot you found please ?

Interloper works in a way that important tools spawn in set locations. The game has a loot table system, upon starting a run a random loot table is selected. The game does not have that many different loot tables, they changed them with the DLC update so it is still not very known what they are now (to my knowledge).

Back then there used to be 3 different loot tables. Items such as Hacksaw, Prybar, Matches, Hammer, Mag Lens and more always spawn in certain guaranteed locations, which can changed with every new run; but you can have "bad luck" and get the same loot table again which makes them spawn in the same locations.

Google "The Long Dark Interloper Loot table" and you will find a reddit post with a comment to a google docs document which shows the set locations and loot tables if you want to see that (spoilers).

I assume the developers did this because if you don't get certain guaranteed items, you might never randomly find them

I'am aware of loot tables.
I thought new feature is a real one random, not just additional spots.

You are playing custom Interloper?

Because hacksaw or hammer was not supposed to spawn in forge map - exception hammer sometimes spawn in BR Maintenance Shed; neither both together.
