The Hyeopdo (Modern South Korean pronunciation: /çʌp.do/) was a pole weapon used in Korea. It is very similar to the Japanese naginata or nagamaki. It was also called micheomdo (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 Muyejebo Beonyeoksokjip (무예예보 번역속집).
