What are the privileges you get after being knighted?

Question

and can anyone from other races/countries be knighted?

Answer 1

I can only speak on British knighthoods. There are no privileges other than being able to impress certain people and book a table at good restaurants. Depending on your order of knighthood you might get to attend occasional church services with the Queen for the Order (once a year or less).

Race is immaterial - there are black, Asian and Oriental knights. As for nationality, you have to be British, a Commonwealth citizen living in Britain, or be from one of the colonies or Commonwealth countries which still allows titles (I'm not sure how many still do).

Non-Commonwealth citizens can receive honorary knighthoods, meaning they can put the initials KBE or Kt after their names but cannot call themselves Sir. They still get a medal but I'm not sure if they wear it - it is not draped over their necks at their investiture as is done for 'real' knights.

Answer 2

You get to call yourself "sir".

Any race can be knighted. People from other countries might be knighted--it depends on the laws of their home country (i.e. Americans can't be knights by American law. so any knighthood would be strictly honorary.)
