In the first confrontation with the Knight, he is pretty hard to kill in the Hard mode, but you can recharge your devil gauges (with that your vitality gauge) by not following him when teleports to the upper levels of the courtyard and shooting him with the grenade gun. He will block your shots but your devil gauge will charge up. You have to play around to find a good vantage point in the courtyard to do this.
