Satyakarman

Satyakarman was a warrior on the Kaurava side in the war at Kurukshetra. Arjuna killed him on the eighteenth and last day of the battle.

The eighteenth day

Satyakarman was among the Kaurava warriors who kept fighting on the final day. By then the Kaurava army was breaking apart, and Śalya was its commander. Arjuna met Satyakarman in battle and killed him with a kshurapra, a crescent-headed arrow used for precise cuts.

On the same day Arjuna also killed Suśarman, the king of the Trigartas, and Satyeshu.
