Knight (Chess Piece)

The knight is unusual amongst chess pieces. It moves to a square that is two squares away horizontally and one square vertically. The Knight is not bound by its surroundings; it can leap over opponents making it the most devastating and unpredictable piece on the chess board.

Once again, Chris Ramsay and Daniel Madison have teamed up to bring you the second entry in the Knights saga. Printed on a crushed stock, with a smooth finish and traditional cut, these cards handle as good as they look, faro effortlessly and astonish during flourishes.

For magicians, gamblers and chess players alike, the matte red tuck case features a number of hidden surprises and card reveals for your performances.

Your move.

The subtlest and most complex piece on the chessboard, the knight has fascinated players with its leaps and sidesteps since the game was first created. Now designers Daniel Madison and Chris Ramsay and artist Oban Jones have sought to capture the piece’s essence in this exquisite deck printed by the United States Playing Card Company.

The cards are printed with metallic gold ink, bringing Jones’ work to elegant life. The custom joker commemorates the drama of a checkmate, a crow already moving in on the king’s fallen “body.” The tuck box is a classic matte with white gold foil.

A must-have for chess lovers and card lovers alike!
