We say ,like, "a correct view" or "correct information", but is "correct knowledge" a right word to make sense? If so, can you tell me any example?

I'd say "accurate information," or "accurate knowledge." "Correct knowledge" sounds a bit awkward.

It all depends upon the context and situation that the concept is being used in. Some examples:
1. The prophet was given perfect understanding of God's will for him.
2. The new Information Technology Manager became popular once the employee's realized he had a proper understanding of their office systems.
3. Albert Einstein had a more perfect comprehension of the Theory of Relativity than any man up to his time.
4. After many conversations, Ruth finally understood correctly, the relationship between her aunt and the shopkeeper.
5. William studied hard and finally gained a correct understanding of the past perfect tense in Latin grammar.
6. Contestant number five was chosen by the judges because they deemed her to have the most correct knowledge of anthropology.
7. The Senators confirmed the third appointee to the Supreme Court because she had a correct view of the Constitution in their opinion.
8. All were happy with Vlad when he finally found the data sheets that had the correct information necessary to reprogram the mainframe computer.
This is just a few examples, but you can see that there are a variety of ways and words to convey the concept of "correct knowledge or view or information".

A correct view is the right way of looking at something.
Correct information is having the right details about an event or thing. I think correct knowledge would mean the same thing, but it's a much more obscure way of saying it. It would sound funny.
We usually say things like "You're right, That's right, You've got the right idea, You know what you're talking about."

I would have to say that in the correct situation "correct knowledge" can be used properly. For instance, if a child was raised being told that the color blue was called red. Then he has knowledge of the name of the color. But he would not have correct knowledge of it. Hope that makes sense.

Mostly it depends on what you are talking about.
"A correct view" would impose on me that the scene one is looking at to be pleasant symmetrically and therefore correct to the admirer.
"Correct information" implies that you have been given or told data this is assumed to be right and unmistakable.
And finally "correct knowledge" is what was transmitted to you for your consuming of intellectual data.
As an American I say, "Oh yeah that's right!"
I hope I helped and made it a bit clearer.

For example Your information is correct. Your grasp of the situation/information is correct/precise. You are right.
You have it down pat.

Generally, we say "that's right" or "that's correct"
