Jedi Knights, like the Order they served, were guardians of peace and justice in the Galactic Republic, and served in key military command roles during the Clone Wars. Master Porter Engle believed that any Jedi worthy of the title of knight put time into planning unarmed defense in case they lost their lightsaber. In the hierarchy of the Order, a Jedi Knight was lower than a Jedi Master and needed to prove themself worthy of the higher rank.

Jedi Knight was a rank within the Jedi Order, referring to a Jedi Padawan who had completed their training and passed the Jedi Trials to become a full member of the Order. " For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic." ― Obi-Wan Kenobi, to Luke Skywalker
