Canon Legends version → Linked from 80 articles

A Knighting Ceremony was a Jedi ceremony in which a Padawan, who, by the right of the Jedi High Council and will of the Force, was granted the rank of Jedi Knight. In it, a Padawan knelt or stood before a superior Jedi, who placed the blade of their lightsaber just above the shoulders and head of the Padawan as they issued a statement along the lines of "By the right of the Council, by the will of the Force, [name], you may rise."
