He also has orange ankle braces that go over his black dress and shoes.

Klaus also has a strong sense of loyalty, vowing to fight hard for his team and is highly disappointed by defeat. He also shows respect and a degree of kindness towards others, as he says to Masamune he had never had to work so hard to fight against an opponent until he fought him.
Beyblade: Metal Masters
Klaus represents Germany, having obtained a spot in the European team as its representative. He made his stage debut against Team Wang Hu Zhang, having stood out of the previous matches won by Julian Konzern. He faced Chiyun Li after his teammates Sophie and Wales had already won their first match against Mei-Mei and Chao Xin. Klaus easily takes the match against Chi-yun and even during the course of the match, Chi-yun tried his mightiest but Klaus simply dominated him, though he respected the effort.
Team Excalibur returned to Julian's mansion for training, where Klaus was tag teamed and defeated by Sophie and Wales for practice. But during this training, Tsubasa Otori of Japan's Team GanGan Galaxy challenged Julian, but Klaus and the twin jewels caught wind of this in time to stop Tsubasa and a mysterious Blader named Ryuga.
Excalibur went on the face GanGan Galaxy as scheduled, Klaus to face Masamune Kadoya in the first round. The axe against the spear, Masamune pushed Klaus to the edge several times, using pin point attacks rather than brute force. Klaus was forced to pull out all the stops in order to battle and finally defeat Masamune, exhausting himself into a coma. Because of this, he missed the second round match but woke up to view Julian's match against Gingka Hagane. To their surprise, Julian was defeated by Gingka's superior ability, forcing Excalibur to train harder to avoid being knocked from the tournament.
In their next match in the Semi-Finals, Team Excalibur is to face the American Team, Team Star Breaker. In the first match, Klaus battles against the uncanny Jack. Try as he might, Klaus strength was no match for Jack's mysterious arts, as Klaus was just made into another one of Jack's works. Klaus was ultimately dominated by Jack's skills, even after exceeding his limits he was child's play for the strange Blader. Because Klaus once again passed out, he missed the match where all of his teammates were dominated by one person, Damian Hart.
Because of the humiliating loss, Dr. Ziggurat stole everything from Julian and forced him to work for Hades. Soon after this he announced the Spiral Force, seeking for a leader, Team Excalibur joined forces with the other teams to stop Zigguart's plans and save Julian. He, Wales, Sophie and Masamune battled Selen Garcia and many HD Academy Bladers once they arrived at Hades city. but during Hades City's launch Klaus had to stay behind for his team to continue to victory. After Gingka and Ryuga stop the spiral core, he looks pleased.

Klaus appears with Juilan in a temple where he tells Gingka, Madoka, Yuki Mizusawa, Kyoya Tategami, and Benkei Hanawa that the place was destroyed before they have reached there, they speculated that the one who took The Sword of The Gods did all of this.
After this episode, he gives Gingka his power to help beat Nemesis and Rago. After their defeat Klaus and his team look toward a better future.
