The hyeopdo was a polearm used in Korea. It was also called micheomdo (Korean: 미첨도), which could be translated as "eyebrow sword" because the curved blade resembled an eyebrow. The first written reference to a hyeopdo is in a Korean martial arts manual from the 17th century called the Muyeyebobeon Yeoksokjip (무예예보번역속집).
