It should be "arrow in the knee", not "arrow to the knee"

According to memebase, the correct term is "arrow in the knee", but has been adapted to "arrow to the knee" also.

This is, of course, negated, discarded, and torn in half if the player is wearing bucklers on his knees.

Hehe.  Funny.  I've been hearing these arrow in the knee jokes since the game came out, and I just got the game for X-Mas.  Where is the guard(s) that say this?

EVERYWHERE. It's one of the random phrases that they mumble when they don't have anything to say. They usually either say something about "... curved swords ..." or this.
