- Not to be confused with The Glaive or Master's Glaive.
Warglaives are one-handed, edged weapons most prominently utilized by demon hunters. They are also used by troll shadow hunters and blood elven spellbreakers. Night elves, predominantly the Sentinels, use a specialized variation in the form of moonglaives. The ancient aldrachi were the ultimate glaivemasters[1] and wielded glaives known as warblades, which were forged from rare minerals that could consume their victims' souls.[2]
Notable

Notes and trivia
- In World of Warcraft, warglaive weapons can only be equipped by demon hunters.
- Warglaives can be transmogrified into one-handed swords and axes.
- They can technically also be transmogrified into maces, however since demon hunters cannot equip maces, and are the only class that can use warglaives, this is not currently possible.
- The word "glaive" is also used for a type of single-bladed polearm. This is the sense in which the word is primarily used in the real world, unlike the fictional warglaives.
