Lovely break-in, the later half was a bit crazy with all anti-knight stuffs going on but I made it through. Beautiful puzzle ;)
@Playmaker6174, I am trying to set puzzles with more consistent challenge. This one was still lopsided as you have noticed. However, I was still happy to make my first puzzle of this kind. Thanks for trying the puzzle and the feedback is very much appreciated! :-)

The first half of the solve was really nice! It remained a challenge right to the end.

Update difficulty level

That was a tough challenge, but I made it in the end! :-) Unless I missed some obvious trick in the middle section, I think this was at least 4/5 in difficulty.
@Piatato, Thanks for trying the puzzle and the feedback! Yes, I forgot to update the proper difficulty level, will do so now, thanks :-)
