Blade Knight makes his first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', along with [[Sword Knight]]. Both of them act mainly the same in this game and both provide the [[Sword]] ability when inhaled. In ''Kirby's Adventure'', it can also be difficult to tell the two apart.

=== ''Kirby's Pinball Land'' ===
In ''Kirby's Pinball Land'', Blade Knight appears as an [[Easter egg]] in the upper board of [[Wispy-Woods Land]] if Kirby manages to spin a [[Twister]] at top speed and quickly spin it again before it stops, accompanied by the [[Mike]] scream sound effect and 77700 points. This only happens when revisiting the board after defeating King Dedede, and Blade Knight himself cannot be interacted with after appearing.

Blade Knight appears in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' as the primary source of the Sword ability, acting much the same as in his last appearance. He can be recruited as a [[Helper]] representing said ability, whereupon he will gain all of Sword Kirby's moves and gain an [[Infinity Jump]], with a drawback being reduced maximum [[health]] compared to the pink puffball.

In ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', Blade Knight is an assistant to [[Meta Knight (anime character)|Meta Knight]], and has the same basic job as [[Sword Knight]]. In the English dub, he speaks with an Australian accent. In that dub and several others, however, Blade Knight doesn't speak as coherent as he does in the Japanese version, sometimes to the point to where he can’t be understood at all by the viewer. Despite that, the characters in the show seem to understand him perfectly fine. This happens quite possibly because of his face mask.

|In this volume, Blade Knight travels with Sword Knight and Meta Knight to [[Chef Kawasaki]]'s restaurant. When [[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]] crosses paths with them, the two knights get mad when he does not recognize them, but Meta Knight calms them down. When the group arrives at the restaurant, they find out that [[Princess Marona]] of the planet [[Chiffon Star]] has gone missing, and they all travel there to find her. The group finds out that the princess was manipulated by [[Baron Gallic]], a villain that Meta Knight and his henchmen had dealt with in the past. Blade and Sword remember that Baron Gallic had tried to control them with his [[Malice Stone]] to steal Meta Knight's treasured sword [[Galaxia]] in the past, but Meta Knight had stopped him. When the group confronts Baron Gallic, Blade Knight accidentally looks at his Malice Stone, falling under the baron's control. They escape to his lair, and the group goes after him. Meta Knight and [[Sword]] Kirby battle against the brainwashed Blade Knight. Kirby eventually strikes him down with an [[Air Bullet]], and inhales him so Meta Knight can go after Baron Gallic. After Baron Gallic's defeat, Blade and Sword come back to their senses, and they reunite with Meta Knight.
