Paul knew only the RISEN Christ. Did he know the other apostles? Did he meet them? I'm pretty sure he met with some others, but I'm not sure. Could some one remind me of this?
Thanks.

All of them. In fact, he had some disagreements with Peter. See the book of Acts, First Jerusalem Council.
Peace and blessings!

He knew Peter and James...plus whoever else was alive and in attendance at the Council of Jerusalem in AD 50: "Some men came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the brothers: "Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved." 2This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles..." (ACTS 15:2) The meeting/council was in Jerusalem...it was with the Apostles.

Yes. According to Galatians 2:9 he met Simon Peter and John son of Zebedee, also James the brother of Jesus, and possibly some of the others (Andrew would be a good guess.)
In Galatians 1 he describes an earlier meeting with Peter and James, 14 years earlier, that lasted two weeks.

the apostles were old at this time, and remained with the church of Rome. Paul visited them, but was partners with Barnabas for a while. he was considered an apastel.

Yes. He met, and debated with, Peter in particular. I'm not sure about others.
