Darknuts appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' in two variations: [[Red Darknut]]s and [[Blue Darknut]]s. Blue Darknuts take more hits to defeat than red ones. These enemies often appear in groups of three or more, making them tough to defeat in constricted areas. They are commonly found in dungeons.{{Ref|[[:File:The-Legend-of-Zelda-North-American-Instruction-Manual-Page-36.jpg|''The Legend of Zelda Instruction Booklet'' (US NES Version), pg. 36]]|A knight who lives in the labyrinths.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', Darknuts come in several varieties, which are color-coded according to their strength. Some of the stronger Darknuts have capes. The first Darknut is fought in as a mini-boss in [[Tower of the Gods]]. All Darknuts have somewhat impregnable armor that can be removed either through repeated damage or through cutting the straps holding the armor in place, as well as by parrying, which lets Link remove either their helmet, or their armor. The unarmored Darknuts can finally be damaged, but they are also much quicker and more nimble, allowing them to evade Link's blows, as well perform new moves. Link can also disarm the foes and pick up their powerful sword, which has a long range, and can break pillars. While disarmed, Darknuts fight with various punches and kicks, although they try to recover their weapon as quickly as possible.
