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's access through the area. Swallowing a Heavy Knight requires use of a Super Inhale, and yields 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 Bullets.

Game appearances

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror

Heavy Knight made his first appearance in this game. He can be found in every major area of the Mirror World, and can often be seen guarding tight passageways.

Kirby: Squeak Squad

Heavy Knight returns in this game, unchanged from his Amazing Mirror appearance. Like before, he 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.
