you seem confused with the lore. Blood Dragons are classed as an ORDER of blood knights by current/final lore, they are also the first and most known group of blood knights. As per the Bloodline retcons in the Vampire Counts 6th and 7th editions, any martial vampire can be considered a Blood Knight. I suggest you read up on the Vampire counts retcon that happened a few years back. 

Blood Dragons have retained most of their history, besides the fact that they are now exclusivly an order of Blood Knights founded by Walach Harkon, rather than only being the direct descendants of Abhorash. In fact the Red Duke was only referred to as a Blood Knight in his most recent appearences since the retcon, and Luthor harkon wasn't even classed as a Blood Knight, instead being a Vampire pirate lord. 

There are Von Carstein blood knights now (the Drakenhof Templars) etc.

there doesnt seem to be a page here discussing what was retconned, but there is on the Lexicanum and other sites if you wish to learn more.
