Jedi Knight

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. 
==History==
In the history of the Order, a Jedi Knight was lower than a Jedi Master and needed to prove themselves worthy of the higher rank.
Unlike those who had that higher rank, Jedi Knights were unable to pursue their studies on their own terms. 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.The High Republic: Light of the Jedi
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. At the war's end, Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine—secretly the Sith Lord Darth Sidious—issued Order 66, declaring every Jedi an enemy of the state. As a result, the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic turned against their generals, killing most of the Jedi. 
At the end of the Galactic Civil War, Luke Skywalker was the last known Jedi Knight.
==Behind the scenes==
As confirmed by editor Tom Hoeler, the term "Jedi Knight" should always see both words capitalized, as should "Knight" on its own if it refers to a Jedi Knight. "Knighthood" also needs to be capitalized, while "knighted" does not need to be. According to the reference book The Star Wars Book, once a Jedi Knight had trained a Padawan of their own to Knighthood, they could then become a Jedi Master.The Star Wars Book This, however, contradicts the events of the novel The High Republic: Into the Dark, where a character rises to the level of Master without passing that requirement.The High Republic: Into the Dark
