A (long) Knife Unboxing, Comparison, & First Look at the Integral Mocenary MK-13 and the Kunwu Padre

Published: 1 year ago

Taking a NOT quick look at the stonewash Kunwu Padre in VANAX and the integral titanium handle Mocenary MK-13 in 20CV with size comparisons, and general first impressions.

Padre in more detail at 14:15
MK-13 in more detail at 34:40

UPDATE: I took the knife apart and made a small change to the lockbar position. Once I removed the pivot from the knife, there was enough room to see that the lock bar was nearly touching the opposite side of the knife. i did not remove the blade from the knife. I was able to bend it back to increase the distance from the show side to be about twice the travel as the lock bar to its normal locked position. I did need to remove the clip and overtravel stop to do that. My action is great. Detent works now. Knife is centered with no play. I wasn’t able to readily remove the pivot collar to remove the action of the knife, but I didn’t need to so I didn’t try very hard.

This is my first public video upload, and I really mostly wanted to share the MK 13 for anyone curious because I couldn’t find any videos on YouTube myself. If it gets some views and likes maybe I will come back and do some reviews. Thanks!
