'''Heavy Knight''' is a [[large enemy]] comparable to other sword-wielding knight enemies such as [[Blade Knight]] and [[Sword Knight]]. This iron clad warrior debuts in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', and appeared again in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]''. He can often be found guarding a [[Mirror Door]], [[Treasure Chest]], [[switch]], or just [[Kirby|Kirby's]] access through the area. Swallowing a Heavy Knight requires use of a [[Super Inhale]], and yields the [[Sword]] [[Copy Ability]].

This iron clad warrior debuts in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', and appeared again in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]''. It can often be found guarding a [[Mirror Door]], [[Treasure Chest]], [[switch]], or just [[Kirby]]'s access through the area. Swallowing a Heavy Knight requires use of a [[Super Inhale]], and doing so gives Kirby the [[Sword]] [[Copy Ability]].


Heavy Knight appears to have grey armor topped by red and gold trim. Also visible are spikes on both shoulder pads, and a large spike on the forehead of the helmet. Although his movements are slow, his sword strikes swoop down and slice backwards in powerful slashes. This combined with his size and high [[stamina]] makes him an imposing enemy not to be taken lightly. Heavy Knight is also somewhat resistant to flinching, only being knocked back by powerful strikes such as those from [[Star Bullet]]s.

=== ''Kirby: Squeak Squad'' ===
Heavy Knight returns in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', unchanged from its previous appearance. Like before, it appears very often in stages, though rarely appearing more than once in said stages.


When possessed by [[Ghost]] Kirby, Heavy Knight can be made to walk (very slowly), jump, and slash with his sword. He can do a three-swipe combo and also do a dashing slash, giving him good versatility, though he is not as agile as [[Sword Knight]] when possessed.
