Blade Knight

Blade Knight is a common enemy in Kirby series.

Blade Knight is a tiny soldier armed with a sword. It wears a green suit of armor that includes a long helmet with red tassels at the tip, a pink mouth guard beneath the helmet, large shoulder pads, and blue beneath the body. White gloved arms emerge from the sides. Its boots are golden.

The blade of its sword has a sharp projection emerging halfway up on each side.

Kirby's Adventure/Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Blade Knight can be found pacing back and forth for short distances while swinging its weapon about in wide slashes. It makes no effort to move from this spot. Swallowing it grants the Sword ability.

Blade Knight also appears in Vegetable Valley's Museum.

Kirby Super Star
Blade Knight appears across various levels. It can be found pacing back in forth in a limited spot where it swings its weapon back and forth to unleash slashes and Sword Beams to hurt Kirby. If swallowed, it gives the Sword ability.

Blade Knight appears as the Helper for the Sword ability as well, having access to the range of attacks that Kirby can use.

In the Anime
Blade Knight appears in Kirby: Right Back at Ya! as an ally and servant of Meta Knight. He and Sword Knight were once thieves that encountered Meta Knight whilst he was being chased by Wolfwrath. Meta Knight saved their lives by eventually driving Wolfwrath away and becoming indebted to him for doing so. They eventually followed Meta Knight to Dream Land where they became servants of King Dedede.

He and Sword Knight are known to be expert Mechanics as they are known to be able to fix machinery (mostly Spaceships, and thus, probably helped in the construction of the Halberd). In one Episode, they converted Kirby's broken Spaceship to be fit to use in a race King Dedede recently announced.

In the Japanese Version he speaks coherently, whilst in the Dub, he speaks in gibberish (that, strangely, people can understand), often saying key things in English.
