SixLeaf SL-16 Vs Mocenary MK-03: Similar Knife, but I Prefer One Much More...
Published: 1 year ago
Had a bit of a conversation on a Facebook group and it prompted a video here comparing the SixLeaf SL-16 and the Mocenary MK-03. At one point, I did a review on the Mocenary, but not a full one on the SixLeaf.
I wholeheartedly recommend the Mocenary between these two. It feels like a 2.0 of the same knife. The blade edge curves a bit more on the Mocenary, and it reaches *just above the 3” mark, but that allows a full four finger grip, better button implementation, better action, more contouring and, at least in my specimens, a marginally better heat treat, not that the SixLeaf one was terrible.
If you absolutely cannot carry a knife over 3” though, the SixLeaf would be the choice as it’s definitively under that measurement where the Mocenary is questionable.
SixLeaf SL-16 Specs:
2.84" (72 mm) M390 blade with 4 mm stock thickness
4.24 oz / 122 gram weight
0.54" (13.8 mm) handle thickness (Ti)
Button Lock
Ceramic bearings & detent ball

Mocenary MK-03 Specs:
3.02" (76.7 mm) M390 blade with 3.9 mm stock thickness
4.1 oz / 116 gram weight
0.53" (13.4 mm) handle thickness (Ti)
Button Lock
Ceramic bearings & detent ball
