  I struggled with this one. May I have a parse for the entire puzzle, please?

    Sure!

    1A: Saw; DATE (palm produce, from the date palm) + D (diamond)

    4A: mariners of yore; NORS (logic gates; NOR gates) + E(lude)

    5A: details; anagram of PISCES without I (current)

    1D: Chimes; IN inside D(octor) + GS (G being the final note in music before letters start repeating)

    2D: Triple; THREAT without AT + E(verything)

    3D: agents (those performing an action in grammar); anagram of REDO + S(ecret)

      Thanks for posting that, I struggled as well with about half, clever in hindsight!
