It is a very nice trident, which allows a good distinction between the white and the black piece. A very good mnemonic for the White Horse and Whale move. With the image of a Whale I can live (and in XBoard I tried to draw a Dolphin in a shape that resembled the move), but the use of a horse image for a piece that moves so very differently from an orthodox Knight has always bugged me. Currently I use the Nightrider, but I thinkt this trident would be much better.
