 That reasoning is rather flawed. If the knight is the best because of it's forking potential, it makes sense to deduce that whatever piece it may win by forking it more important than itself. Thus, the best piece a knight could fork would take it's place as the best piece.

Knight is best expendable peice is what vagamundo means.  Regardless I like the Rook, sometimes called a castle.  Powerful, and swift, but not as quick to flee as the queen.

 I don't think you are allowed to actually spell it out in these forums. They try to keep the conversation on a family level.

Pawns are the soul of chess.....

 I agree with vagamundo.but so that people don't pick fun at me too, here's the explanation.

knights are great. because most people don't want to trade it for a bishop, queen,or rook. therefore it is great to abut on the enemy's territory and drive him nut's!

Though I have been told that I play much more with my bishops, I definitely appriciate the individuality of the knight.  I think that the queen is not preferred because it cannot be easily traded, and must be protected at all costs.

The king is my favorite piece. If he doesn't move forward the other pieces don't follow.

Assuming you mean if both my opponent and I both have one... I'd say my favorite pieces is anyone  that isn't the queen.   Queens were born to be traded.
