If this was in your Jrusteli game, I suppose you might have been using my Old Seshnelan Chivalric Knights and not the modern New Hrestoli Idealist ones (cf. www.etyries.com/malkioni/chivalry.htm).

The former would certainly be users of sorcery; the latter aren't (they're on the way to learning it). They aren't really all that comparable. See Peter's article on all the different things "Knight" could mean to a Malkioni, at www.etyries.com/malkioni/knights.htm
