The '''Knee Smash''' ({{ja|ストライキングニー|Sutoraikingu Nī}}, ''Striking Knee''), also well-known in the fan community as '''The Knee''' and '''Knee of Justice''' (and a variety of other nicknames involving the term "knee"), is [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[forward aerial]] since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It is an extremely powerful low-trajectory KO move often used at the end of Falcon's combos and for edge-guarding. It deals up to 18% [[damage]] in ''Melee'', 19% in ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'', and 22% in ''Ultimate'', and has [[electric]]al properties when [[sweetspot]]ted.

The name of the move is confirmed from his "Red" Smash trophy description in ''Melee'', that game's strategy guide, and also the tips in ''Ultimate''. Since its appearance in ''Melee'', where it was considered one of the best combo enders in Falcon's kit along with one of the best aerials in the game, it has become iconic to the character's identity in a similar vein to [[Falcon Punch]]. | |||
