Explanation
In passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject: "him" → "He". The agent (the doer) is mentioned with "by": "by the murderer". We use "with a knife" to show the instrument used to commit the action. So the sentence correctly becomes: He was killed with a knife by the murderer.
