This is a variation of sequence A326413 where, instead of taking the lowest x-coordinate of the two tied squares with the same board number and distance from the origin, rotate left (counterclockwise) from the direction of the last leap and choose the first of the two squares encountered.
For the sequence given here, if a tied square is directly in line with the last leap direction it is chosen last. The sequence is finite as after 644 steps a square with the number 7 is reached after which all eight surrounded squares have been visited.
For the sequence where a tied square which is directly in line with the last leap direction is chosen first, then there are 946 steps taken before the knight is trapped. The visited squares for this variation are given as a link.

Scott R. Shannon, Image for the path. The starting square is shown in green, and final square in red. Each of the 6 yellow squares are where the next step was decided from two tied squares by a left rotation; the pink square shows the chosen square, and a gray square the other square. Also shown are the board numbers, and the step number in brackets, for each step.
