    The pieces look and feel great. The detail in each piece gives an overall high quality impression, while the weight and balance give a satisfying heft in the hand. A really beautiful chess set that I am delighted with.

    Fierce Knight Set

    Posted by Phillip Kubal on 21st Oct 2015

    To say I am very pleased with this set would be an understatement. For the money this set easily rivals that of a much more expensive set. The Chess Store uses the words ‘meticulous precision’, ‘superb craftsmanship’ and ‘premium’ to describe this set and they are spot on! The ebonizing is so good you would have to snap a piece in half to distinguish it from authentic ebony (which I don’t plan to do). Also, did I mention the Knight looks wicked! I searched no less than 50 similarly priced sets of this size and price and am so glad I chose this one. Just buy it already!
