A knot group has weight one, so is normally generated by a single element called a weight element of the knot group. A meridian is a typical weight element, but some knot groups admit other weight elements. We show that for some infinite classes of three-strand pretzel knots and all prime knots with up to eight crossings, the knot groups admit weight elements that are not automorphic images of meridians.
