If your that anal in believing that a grip should be bringing hacksaws to their show calls then I'm sure glad as (obscenity removed by admin) I won't be working with you.
As a grip I bring what's in/on my pouch/belt:
Quick-piq
Needle nose pliers
Olfa knife
Scorpion flash-light
6" crescent wrench (8" spare in the bag)
ratchet for key clamps
Speed wrench (if rigging)
Hex keys
Carabiner
2" Paper tape
Measuring tape
Leathermen
Holy crap, sounds like alot for one belt, but saves me the time, that's maybe why I work so much as a Grip/Lead Grip/Dolly Grip on IA sanctioned shows here in Canada.
Don't flatter yourself with your knowledge of saw blades, if I ever have a doubt about using the Key's tools for a task, I ask. (You can use that line, my compliments)
JD...maybe you've worked in the fiction world for so long that you've forgotten what reality is, you seem to pass judgment pretty quick...and if that's the case, (obscenity removed by admin) off.
Stay classy
