To provide a weaving reed used in a loom using a multifilament as a warp yarn, having a strength not causing flexural deformation and torsional deformation which cause problems on the quality of a woven fabric at beating, and not allowing the meander of a weft yarn at the beating.

The weaving reed 10 equipped with a pair of upper and lower caps, and a plurality of dents 11 supported by the caps at the upper and lower ends is regulated as follows. The dents 11 include two types of dents inclined at different inclination angles to a height direction of the reed, when viewed from a side of the reed. The two types of the dents three-dimensionally intersect each other in an X-form when viewed from the side of the reed 10. The inclination angles are set in a manner such that a beating position of the dents 11 is located within an area including an intersecting position P where the two-types of the dents three dimensionally intersect.
