None of the knights were initially offered to undertake the Green Knight's challenge.

Arthur takes the challenge initially but then Gawain steps up. Gawain says that he is the least valuable; his life would not be a loss where Arthur's would be. This is the argument finally made by Gawain.

Explanation:

The Green Knight made a challenge with the famous Knights of the Round Table. In the game, Green Knight challenged that he wanted one of the knights to use his axe on his own neck and he wanted to cut the head of another knight in one day and a year from now.

The Green Knight's plan is to test the court and he wants to test one of Arthur's knights. Arthur takes the challenge initially but then Gawain steps up. Gawain says that he is the least valuable; his life would not be a loss where Arthur's would be. This is the argument finally made by Gawain.
