KnotTheory` comes loaded with some knot tables; currently, the Rolfsen table of prime knots with up to 10 crossings [Rolfsen], the Hoste-Thistlethwaite tables of prime knots with up to 16 crossings and the Thistlethwaite table of prime links with up to 11 crossings (see Further Knot Theory Software#Knotscape):

(For In[1] see Setup)

In[2]:= ?Knot

Knot[n, k] denotes the kth knot with n crossings in the Rolfsen table. Knot[11, Alternating, k] denotes the kth alternating 11-crossing knot in the Hoste-Thistlethwaite table. Knot[11, NonAlternating, k] denotes the kth non alternating 11-crossing knot in the Hoste-Thistlethwaite table.

In[3]:= ?Link

Link[n, Alternating, k] denotes the kth alternating n-crossing link in the Thistlethwaite table. Link[n, NonAlternating, k] denotes the kth non alternating n-crossing link in the Thistlethwaite table.
