Can you do checkmate with three knights?

Yes, but black cannot avoid either stalemating white by capturing the knight, or allowing the exchange of the knight for one of black's- leaving him only with 2 knights, which cannot mate a lone king (although with some positions it's possible to mate with 2 N vs King and pawn)

NNN-N is a win by normal means. I cannot btw (against the machine).
NNN vs. 0 is easy.
NNN vs. 0 is easy.
@Andnar thanks for the information.
I made one which is similar where black cannot exploit a winning material advantage: lichess.org/study/VREOnO1C/JA4PaTQX#0 but it's not as good. BTW who composed it?
