@MustangMate: Several moves win in your last puzzle. Only one move checkmates in 1 but you didn't ask for that. Here is an alternative that works:

 

Btw, your forelast puzzle is much more interesting. Can't remember the solution but it is great!

The one where you have to promote to a knight, I failed it twice, first I promote to a bishop, but I got stale mate. Then on second try I promote to knight, epico

Again Santiago, great puzzle.   Do I dare ask...did YOU compile or make up the puzzle?   It wouldn't surprise me if you did.   I'm sorry that I haven't been on the "SKYPE" track with you.   Chess has not been a priority as of late.   Honestly though, I do look forward to playing chess with you.   Hope all is well with you Santiago, and you are enjoying life.       ~Michael~

I checked a few chess databases, and this is indeed an original problem as far as I can tell.

Similar to this puzzle by Bodo Van Dehn: https://www.learnchess.co.uk/a-chess-knightmare-can-you-solve-it/

Perhaps he composed it or it's a direct variation.
