The '''Metal slime knight''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}.

Introduced in {{Dragon Quest V}}, it is a stronger variant of a [[Slime knight]].

Contrary to most players' expectations, the Metal slime knight does not yield the incredible experience points befitting [[Metal slime|their namesake]], as either the [[Metal slime]]s that let themselves get captured by the [[Slime knight]]s are the least experienced slimes, or the [[Slime knight]]s shield their steeds from the finishing blow. Indeed, they do not even bear vulnerability to anti-metal weapons and skills, nor do they possess astonishing speed, a high chance of dodging attacks and immunity to magic. Instead, rumors abound that the steed is merely painted chrome...

In the {{PlayStation 2}} remake of {{V}}, it was further distinguished from a [[Slime knight]] by wielding different weaponry. It is also depicted with a different color scheme.
