To make someone a knight by bestowing the title and honors upon them.
From 'be-' prefix combined with 'knight,' from Old English 'cniht.' The 'be-' makes the noun into a verb meaning to create or install as a knight.
The knighting ceremony is ancient and formal, but 'beknight' reduces this grand ritual to a single verb—when you can make a noun into an action with just 'be-,' language becomes genuinely economical.
