The Pyeongon is a nunchaku-like weapon used by the Joseon army and is first mentioned in a martial arts manual called Muyesinbo.

The weapon was inspired by the farmer's flail to thresh rice with.

[citation needed] The Pyeongon is one of the weapons in the Muyedobotongji that has special techniques for use on horseback as well.

For foot soldiers techniques are given against the long staff (gonbang; 棍棒).
