Kamen Rider Knight is essentially a close range fighter. His primary weapon is his rapier, Dark Visor as well as his powerful Sword Vent. These weapons make Knight suited to close-range, but make him weak at long-range. To compensate, his other Advent Cards are centered on disorientation or confusion to help him close in on the opponent, and unique among the Riders he can wear Darkwing as a cape using his Guard Vent or Advent to fly at high speeds. These cards make Knight a powerful combatant for one-on-one duels. His Survive mode enhances his close range capabilities with a more powerful Sword Vent, modifies his Nasty Vent into a more offensive form and gives him a far-range weapon. Kamen Rider Knight may refer to any the following characters:
