История и происхождение
Khao Chiang (เข่าเฉียง), the diagonal knee, is a traditional Muay Thai technique whose Thai name translates literally to 'slanting knee.' [1] Kraitus and Rennehan describe it as one of the fundamental khao (knee) weapons in the Muay Thai arsenal, used primarily from the clinch to attack the opponent's floating ribs at a diagonal angle. [1] Delp documents Khao Chiang as a technique developed through generations of Thai stadium fighters who refined the precise 45-degree angle to maximise impact on the ribcage while maintaining clinch control. [2] The technique gained international prominence as Muay Thai spread globally in the 1970s-1990s. [2]

Биомеханический механизм
Primary Action — Driving the knee upward or diagonally into the target using hip flexion and body weight
Joints Involved — Hip (powerful flexion drive), knee (point of impact, flexed), core (posture and power transfer)
Force Vector — Upward (straight knee to body/head), diagonal (round knee from the side), or clinch-pull driven
Clinch Integration — Most effective when combined with clinch control — pulling the opponent's head down into the rising knee multiplies impact force
Позиция и вход
From Muay Thai clinch — Secure the plum (double collar tie), pull the opponent's head down, drive the knee up into the body or head
From clinch (collar-and-bicep) — Control one side, pull the opponent into the rising knee
As counter (opponent shoots) — When the opponent level changes for a takedown, drive the knee up into their face or chest
Варианты
Straight knee — driving the knee straight upward into the body or head
Curved knee (round knee) — swinging the knee from the side in a circular path
Flying knee — leaping forward and driving the knee at the apex of the jump
Clinch knee — pulling the opponent into the knee from Muay Thai plum position

✓Khao chiang is the Muay Thai diagonal knee — driven at a 45-degree angle into the opponent's body from the clinch
✓From a Thai clinch (double collar tie), pull the opponent's head to one side and drive the opposite knee diagonally upward
✓The knee targets the floating ribs, liver, or spleen at an angle that the standard guard cannot cover
✓Rotate the hip in the direction of the knee — the power comes from the combined upward and rotational hip drive
✓Rise onto the ball of the support foot at the moment of impact to add height and extension to the diagonal path
✓The khao chiang is used when the opponent successfully defends straight knees by tightening the centre guard
✓Follow with a straight knee or elbow after the diagonal knee shifts the opponent's defensive focus to the side
Типичные ошибки
!Not rotating the hip to create the diagonal angle — it becomes a standard straight knee
!Hitting the elbow or forearm because the angle was not sharp enough to go around the guard
!Not pulling the opponent's head to the opposite side — the head pull opens the target area
!Losing clinch control during the rotational setup
!Rising onto the toes but not driving the hip — the knee must penetrate, not just rise
!Throwing too many diagonal knees from the same side, allowing the opponent to anticipate
!Not following up after landing — the diagonal knee shifts the opponent's guard and creates openings
