One of The Meta Knights that Kirby battles in his game series.

Ax Knight is a squat, armored enemy. He wears a helmet with two curved horns protruding from either side. It is trimmed along the bottom and has a spiked band across the middle. His face is covered by a skull mask from which two red points of light shine through the eye holes. His body is slight and is merged within his head. He has short arms, and almost no legs to speak of, appearing only as feet beneath him. He carries a massive ax that varies between being double and single sided.

Kirby's Adventure

Ax Knight appears with the rest of The Meta Knights at select battle scenes as summoned by Meta Knight. He displays one of two tactics when called to a fight. He can take a large step forward with a mighty swing of his ax each time, or he can throw and catch his axes in a similar fashion to the blades thrown by Sir Kibble.

Kirby Super Star

Ax Knight appeared as a regular enemy in addition to appearing with his fellow Meta Knights in a progression stalling battle. His behavior is much the same as before.

In addition to battling Kirby, Ax Knight is one of the characters given dialog in Revenge of Meta Knight.

Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land

Ax Knight returned with similar behavior to its Adventure appearance.
