Wahaika (mouth of the fish) were typically fashioned from native hardwood, whalebone, or stone, including our highly valued pounamu (greenstone). Wahaika were often sharp at their forward edge and were used with thrusting, jabbing, and swinging blows. They also often had a figure carved on the side of the blade.
