Mate with only two knights (one each side)?

I just finished a game in which both sides were left with only one knight each, no other figures or pawns. I was interested to note that the computer didn´t automatically consider the game drawn, as it does when too little mating material is left. A mate in this situation is obviously possible, but isn´t it always an assisted mate (or a huge blunder!)? The last move must obviously be from the mating knight; the move before must also be from the other knight, as the king must be in the corner and has no square from which he could have moved from.
