Trivia

• The battle model of Orsin's Hatchet is an exact match for the design of Vouge, the personal axe of Osian himself in Thracia 776. The axe even fills a similar role that Vouge did as a ranged axe, although it is much weaker.
• Orsin's Hatchet is the only one of the character-named weapons in Awakening to be named for a character who is not available as a playable bonus unit in the game through SpotPass or DLC.
  • It is also one of only two such items as a whole, the other being Kris's Confect.
