What were some of the special skills the knights had in the middle ages?

In the medieval period knights were usually wealthy gentlemen, often members of nobility, as such they were able to engage in activities which required wealth to pursue. This resulted in acquiring skills that other men were less likely to possess. Equestrian skills would top the list. Originally knights were mounted soldiers roughly equivalent to today's military officers. They would have been skilled horseman on and off the battlefield and especially in jousting tournaments. What makes these skills unique to knights and those training to be knights was the fact that only men of means or those being sponsored by men of means could have access to riding horses which in those days were quite expensive. Besides horsemanship a knight would have trained to use superior weaponry again accessible only to knights. In battle they would have been the equivalent of today's military officers so they would need to be skilled in leading men into battle. Not unique to knights but a skill possessed by a knight would be management skills. Many knights owned large estates and much of their time was spent managing those estates. They also would serve on juries and dispense justice, again not a skill they performed exclusively but one of the things they did.
