The knight is a short-range piece, but a strong one. On the other hand, it takes 3 full moves to get the knight from the square e4 to e5 - and a full 4 moves to get the knight from e4 to c6! The most difficult pawns to handle for the knight are clearly the a- and h pawns, because they limit the knight’s activity - it can’t step off the edge of the board!
