Knight Line
This puzzle uses a new constraint I came up with: Keypad Knight Lines.
For a very nice introduction to this constraint, try Knight's Templar by Jeremy Dover
I would really appreciate any feedback on the puzzle or the new constraint.
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku Rules Apply.
- Killer Cages: Digits in cages sum to total in top-left corner.
- Arrows: Digits along arrows sum to the circled digit.
- Keypad Knight Lines: Indigo lines connect digits a knight's move apart on a phone keypad. (e.g. 1 must connect to 6 or 8)

What a beautifully designed puzzle. I gave it 2 stars for difficulty, not because it was easy but because it was so beautifully designed that one always knew where to look next.
Reply: Glad you liked it glum hippo! And thanks for the translation help.

Rerly: Thanks a lot, that is very cool, almost the same constraint. I like that you have to figure out the digits in the knight sequence.

This is an amazing debut puzzle for a very cool new constraint! Kudos to you for both.
