its been an age old duel througout the history of chess, the only two different peices with the same value, so it is only fair to ask,
which one is better>??
personally it depends on the position i would never relinquish a knight on a support point for a usless bhsiop and a fianchettoed scicilian bishop for a stray knight
but nonehteless what about in the onpenings when trade is at stakewhichi one do u prefer
i would only choose bishops over knights due to the reason of the possibilities of a bishop pair
