Each variety from Orange to Red to Blue | Iron Knuckles, hulking armored knights, first appear in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'' as guardians of [[Dungeon|Palaces]], usually defending the Dungeon Item or corridors near the [[Boss]]. They are skilled with sword and shield, attacking [[Link]] relentlessly. Each variety from Orange to Red to Blue is more adept than the last, more adroitly blocking Link's attacks, countering, and absorbing more damage. Blue Iron Knuckles gain the additional ability to fire sword beams as Link does, requiring each of the knight's flurry of attacks, sometimes up to seven swings in a quick succession, to be blocked or evaded. When attacking, if Link squats, then immediately jumps and swings his sword with precise timing, Link can catch the Iron Knuckle in the head before it can raise its shield in defense. | ||

Once forced to dismount, Rebonack fights as a Blue Iron Knuckle. | [[Rebonack]], the [[Boss]] of the [[Maze Island Palace]] and [[Mini-Boss|mini-boss]] of the [[Hidden Palace]], confronts Link mounted on a horse.
