The knight has a relative strength value of 3. It would be incorrect to think of the knight being worth 3 points as if capturing it gives the player 3 points toward some kind of winning point total. The other relative values are queen 9;rook 5; bishop 3; pawn 1; king priceless.

A pawn is valued at 1 point , both knight and bishop at 3 points, the rook at 5 points, and the queen at 9 points . The value of the king can not be determined since it is the one piece that can't be captured only defeated which is the whole point of the game of chess .
