A Wahaika is a type of traditional Māori hand weapon. Wahaika are short club-like weapons usually made of wood or whalebone and are used for thrusting and striking in close-quarter, hand-to-hand fighting. Whalebone wahaika are called wahaika parāoa. Wooden wahaika are often carved with intricate designs. In addition to being a fighting weapon, rangatira would hold wahaika during ceremonies and speeches, especially if they wanted people to pay attention to something important. Special wahaika would only be given to people with considerable ranking in the Māori tribal structure.

- A Wahaika is a type of traditional Māori hand weapon. Wahaika are short club-like weapons usually made of wood or whalebone and are used for thrusting and striking in close-quarter, hand-to-hand fighting. Whalebone wahaika are called wahaika parāoa. Wahaika translates to "mouth of the fish", in reference to the notch on one side which is used to catch an opponent's weapon. On the other side just above the handle the concave tip above a carved humanoid figure is the primary striking edge, particularly used against the opponent's temples, face, and ribs. The rest of the spherical edge is sharp like a blade. Wooden wahaika are often carved with intricate designs. In addition to being a fighting weapon, rangatira would hold wahaika during ceremonies and speeches, especially if they wanted people to pay attention to something important. Special wahaika would only be given to people with considerable ranking in the Māori tribal structure. The resemblance of the wahaika to the Chilean Mapuche people's clava hand club has been cited as "soft evidence" for Pre-Columbian Polynesia-South America contact. (en)
- Lo Wahaika è un'arma Māori neozelandese. Gli antichi Maori utilizzavano lo Wahaika come "pugnale", sebbene assomigli e venga considerata una clava. È intagliato nel legno, oppure raramente nelle ossa di balena. L'arma assomiglia a un orecchio con un corto manico simile a un lobo oblungo e con la testa a forma di virgola. Veniva spesso decorato con intagli riguardanti temi naturali come gli animali. Quest'arma veniva utilizzata per aggredire alle spalle un uomo e tramortirlo. A volte invece nel confronto diretto esso veniva lanciato tra le file dei guerrieri dei villaggi nemici come se fossero sassi. (it)
