To provide a reed for weaving with an air-jet loom, easily passing air to a back side even when using a high-density reed to ensure stable transfer of a weft, and maintaining conventional warp aligning function and function to insert the weft into a weave structure.

The reed 1 for weaving includes a plurality of tunnel reed dents 3 having a recess 4 in a front edge 31, arranged in a manner to connect the recesses 4 with each other and having a guiding groove 5 for guiding the weft and its transporting air flow in lateral direction. In the reed 1 for weaving, a space dent 8C free from the recess 4 on the front edge 81 and positioned not to protrude the front edge 81 beyond an inner edge 43 of the recess 4 forming the guiding groove 5 is present between the tunnel dents 3. A space dent 8 of a position corresponding to the space between the upper and lower parts to form the recess 4 of the tunnel dent 3 is bent backward at a bent part 84, and the front edge 81 of the bent part 84 is positioned behind a rear edge 32 of the tunnel dent 3.
