A siangham (or siangkam) is a type of melee combat weapon. It is a narrow, cylindrical thrusting weapon, typically about 1.5 feet (46 cm) long. It's appearance is similar to an arrow, but with a handle on the end. While normally used for thrusting attacks, it can be used to slash or parry.

The siangham came from Malaysia, where it is used in a fighting style called Kuntao.
