Or a full knight for that matter. Just another bit of OT continuity Lucas either forgot or ignored when writing the prequels.
“I was once a Jedi Knight, same as your father.”
This is one of of the places where it’s clear the two were originally separate characters. This is a retcon I like. Honestly I prefer the idea that Anakin was a knight in his own right, in fact I wish he was for more of the trilogy.
