If it is indeed a single character, it’s likely to be <C->. You can use ga to get the ascii, octal, etc., versions.
For grep(1), most shells (my bash, at least) will let you input literals with <C-v> much like vim.

File Separator, code point 28, or 0x1C, originally used to delimit data structures.
If you cannot type it with Ctrl+, you can use alt codes if you have a number pad on your keyboard. Type Alt+28 and you should get something that looks like this: ∟ You must use your number pad, the keys above the letter keys will not work. If your keyboard doesn't have a number pad, you can copy-paste the character from here: ∟
