Axe Knight is, relatively, a [[Kirby]]-sized creature, sporting a large, purple & gold, spike-ridden helmet with curved horns, and a small, skull-like body. It has unusually hollowed eyes, with red pupils, and wears small, oval, blue-hued slippers and round, white gloves. As its name indicates, Axe Knight is armed with a battle-axe.

Axe Knight debuts along with the other Meta-Knights in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and reappears in the remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]''. He appears in ambush encounters along with other members of the Meta-Knights, and has two different ways of attacking. He can either continuously strike with his axe while stepping forward, or throw his axe like a boomerang. His axe can be an issue, but he is easy to defeat.

===''Kirby's Pinball Land''===
In ''[[Kirby's Pinball Land]]'', Axe Knight appears as an [[Easter egg]] in the upper board of [[Poppy Brothers' Land]] if Kirby frees all the [[Hatched Chick|Chicks]] without letting any [[Poppy Bros. Jr.|Junior Poppy Brothers]] touch them, accompanied by the [[Mike]] scream sound effect and 77700 points. This only happens when revisiting the board after defeating King Dedede, and Axe Knight himself cannot be interacted with after appearing.

In ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]'', Axe Knight serves as [[Meta Knight]]'s partner for the Gold League Qualifier Battle in [[Dedede's Cake Royale]]. He has the same move-set as [[Cutter]] Kirby, and is not playable. This role gives Axe Knight the distinction of being the only member of the Meta-Knights who makes a physical appearance separate from the others.

|Tertiary supporting character
|In this volume, Axe Knight is one of the many contestants in the big race held in [[Dream Land]], along with the other three [[Meta-Knights]]. When the racers are choosing their machines, Axe Knight goes for the [[Shadow Star]] because it looks like Meta Knight's cape. The other knights get jealous, and they board the machine too. The four of them fight over the machine as it unstably cruises along. Throughout the rest of the race, Axe Knight is usually grouped with the other contestants without standing out. When the group encounters the monstrous [[Peperon]], Axe Knight yells at [[Kizario]] for having them fight it as their last challenge.
