Very Sweet
The fact that the first isolated pair I identified was also among the last pair to give up was very clever!!
Well done
[apiyo] Thanks Noggin! Yeah I was pretty pleased the way that turned out too :)

Excellent puzzle, thank you. I found the second part harder than the break-in, I think... It's amazing to me how powerful that anti-knight rule is.
It occurs to me: if you had published this puzzle yesterday, you could have called it "SATURDAY Knight Fever..." ;-)
[apiyo] haha thanks pseudo!
