UthorPendragon

I tried to buy the 1849 Knight above and the complete chess set, from Tim Millard at antiquechessshop. But if you live in the good old USA it is against the law to purchase any African Elephant Ivory now; even if it's an antique over 150 years old. Curiously you can kill 2 African Elephants and bring home their tusks as a trophy. Is it just me or does this new law seem about the stupidest thing you've ever heard? Let's save the elephants by not allowing antique sales! That will save them! Oh, you're a big game hunter, go ahead and shoot a couple, no problem! Elephants happen to be my favorite zoo animal and I give to charities that try to save them. 

UthorPendragon

Now about the knight. It has smooth cheeks and looks like a horse. I think it's the best Jaques knight I have ever seen.

UthorPendragon

That is one mean looking ugly Knight!

I wonder if there are any cool looking Dragon head Knights.

Or Knights designed like a Viking longship head.

How about a viper posed to strike.

 

UthorPendragon

I like the Knight UpcountryRain posted in #54. That knight has great eyes.

Ugly, indeed, UthorPendragon!

And from there he draws his strength. A pretty boy he is not. evil.png

I miss the old FIDE sets where the knights are fatter and shaped like a hammer.
