    White to move. Can he win?

    No, ofcourse not. Even if white were able to capture all 4 pawns, there is no mate with a knight and a king. So perhaps white could draw, but there's certainly no win.

     Well done, hondaguy! The position is a forced mate for white.

    Interesting problem. I solved after a lot of trial and error, still it's fun and good to come back to for visualization training. Thanks.
