It is harder for opponents to visualise (and anticipate) the squares that it can attack, it can jump over pieces and it’s the best looking piece.
Can't defend against the Knight with a shield. have to either move the targeted piece, or making taking it too expensive to stomach. Any other piece can be blocked by a pawn shield.
Bc knights quickly get you into and out of trouble. Ideally, they mask a setup for the bishop hammer.
