German Knight Woodtek 3.75
Way nicer than anticipated. Thought maybe I should have ordered a true wood set but these are elegant and more than satisfactory.

German Knight Staunton Plastic Chess Set with Rosewood & Boxwood Pieces - 3.75" King
I like these more than the wooden chess pieces that I paid $375 many years ago. They are absolutely beautiful, weighted very well, have an excellent "feel" to them, and are as tough as nails. I plan to buy them with a board for a friend for Christmas. John B.

GERMAN KNIGHT STAUNTON PLASTIC CHESS SET WITH WOOD GRAIN PIECES - 3.75" KING
I am not overstating it when I say this has to be the best plastic chess set in production the world over. They look real, are superbly made, and are nicely weighted. I can't think of a better plastic tournament set. Love it. Bravo. I was wondering when the German Staunton set would finally appear in a quality plastic set.
