I have this set, all because of those bad ass squared off knights:

Which chess set has, in your opinion, the best looking Knight?
Sort:
And in second place is the Marcel Duchamp knight that’s also my avatar:
Nobody else have any faves?
I'm hopeful! I love your Macel Duchamp!
I was surprised to be quite taken with the Knights in the Romanian-Hungarian National Tournament Chess Set from Chess Bazaar. I've been eyeing off Knights with really action-packed manes recently... but these kept drawing me back to look. I don't know why:
They are not my favourites... but I found them appealing.
I really like these knights:
The French Warrior
The Arabian Knight
American Adios
The Hurricane Series
CB Blackburne (Joseph Henry) Edition
The St. Petersburg Luxury Artisan Series
How about the Wellington? 
Very fond of the Attica knight from Staunton Castle.
I like this knight from @Analog_Player very much, I choose this one over any Staunton knight every day and twice on sunday.

I got one of these sets on the strength of the knight alone (although the rest of the set is also very nice). I've yet to see another knight that I like quite so much in terms of aesthetics (handling is a different matter).

Aye aye! Luckily those have not been cracked.
Yet!
I rather like the Piatigorsky set knights (pic anyone?). Never bought such a set as they are usually on the large size. Now if someone did a version with 3.75'' kings.....

My knights are ok... but both black rooks have cracked, alas. I'd had the set for about a month when I noticed. I emailed Mandeep a week ago but have yet to hear back.

harthacnut,
My favorite knight for handling is this oversized behemoth from the House of Chess.
Compared to a standard Zagreb knight.
Plus, it really fills the hand when playing.
@loubalch That's a beast! Is that the 4" HoC Zagreb set?
I like the one posted by @Minarima which I believe is the label 8 knight. It is also shown in the first photo and the label 628 below that one.

Even though it was well outside my budget I too came this >||< close to buying the Attica set just because of those knights. Just beautiful
Am I the only one who hates the look of those high end more realistic knights with mains etc? I guess I like my knights blocky and more abstract.
My favorite are probably the Chavet ones.
There were a couple knights from old bohemia reproduction that I thought looked unique kinda like a sea monster haha.
Honestly I’ve always liked the basic HOS grandmaster knights and just your basic Lardy knights. What can I say, I’m weird I guess.
As soon as somebody pointed it out to me, I decided I don't like knights with dotted eyes. That 's not a universal rule (Lardy knights are ok) but on a full Staunton style knight like those above it makes the piece look cartoonish and a bit deranged to me.
It does at least help narrow down the sets I'm interested in buying. For instance, all the Jaques sets currently on sale are a non-starter.

That set in general is awesome. I love thick sturdy knights like that. Honestly those fide WC knights everyone hates have been growing on me for that same reason.
The title says it all!
