I am way late on this thread but I will still give you my opinion. Black ghosts and very peaceful and secretive fishes that need their own hiding places to call home. The native fishes you described appear to me to be aggressive and rather territorial like a cichlid as they grow. I could be wrong of course, but my advise would be to not add the knife as he could get beaten up with time and killed.

well if you guys dont think i should then i dont want to spend money on a fish my others will end up killing
Nothing is an absolute truth in fishkeeping. The combination you want to have could work but, on paper, it doesn't sound like it will. Black Ghost knives are very peaceful and your fishes are rather aggressive so it could spell trouble for the Black Ghost to compete for food, being harrassed, etc.
