I've been trying to make this puzzle for several weeks, and constantly breaking it! Finally done it - so here it is, Diamond Mining!
I've changed counting circles to diamonds as I've also used arrows which don't all add to the digit count!
Normal Sudoku rules apply, along with counting circles, arrows and kropki dots. Oh - and don't forget the antiknight :)
Anyhow - hope you enjoy!

We can add one more name to the list of people who suddenly found this puzzle a lot easier after actually reading the rules!

Another person here who forgot about the knights move constraint haha. Great puzzle Ratfinkz, it made my evening to see you get your debut CTC feature. Thoroughly deserved, this is a very fun puzzle with loads of lovely moments

Might want to explain the rules a bit, personally I have no idea what counting circles is.

Sorry, I thought the logic master blurb was just for a quick introduction, and the instructions are what you get when you open the puzzle. Thanks for the heads up.

Ugh, this is so hard. Why is this so hard?
Oh, because there's an anti-knight constraint that I ignored.
~~~
That would do it
