Definition

A chess move where you deploy the knight (the horse-shaped piece) to attack an opponent's piece or position. It's what happens when chess players try to make the game sound way more exciting than it actually is to non-chess players.

Example Usage

I won the game with a solid horse job that forked his queen and rook.
