What kind of chess set is that?
Cavalier Deluxe. I used to have one 40 years ago. I’m surprised to see one in use. It’s a decent set with good weight, and attractive, but the plastic was a little brittle.
Yes, I have one of those Cavalier sets from 1970 or 71. I didn’t know they were still available. They are a little bottom-heavy and light on the top (weighted but hollow, I believe).
Notice that the roll-up board doesn’t lie flat.
