Ngaw (ง้าว,ของ้าว) is a pole weapon that was traditionally used in Thailand by elephant warrior. It consists of a wood shaft with a curved blade fashioned onto the end, and is similar to the Japanese naginata and the Chinese guan dao . Usually, it also had a hook (ขอ) between the blade and shaft used for commanding the elephant. The elephant warrior used the Ngaw like a blade from atop an elephant during battle.
