No experience with KK forks. I have had 3 point forks by Rankin and Rears manufacturing. If you don't need quick hitch compatibility they both looked very well made. ....

putput; I've never used 3pt. forks on a compact, but I have on a regular farm tractor. I really don't remember what brand they were but they did work quite well long as the terain was pretty level. I do remember thinking that a hydraulic top link for the tractor 3pt. would be real handy for leveling the forks on an uneven surface. hope this helps. Frank. ....

Getting pallets on and off the forks can be difficult on uneven ground. Features such as hydraulic carriage tilt and a swinging carriage with 3-piece forks make the work easier. Adjustable width forks are desirable since pallet notches aren't always the same width. The hydraulic lift I have on my 3ph forklift is more precise than 3ph control but a hitch lift should be adequate. For a lot of pallet work and for stacking them side-shift is a good feature.
I still have a pic of my 3ph forklift posted below from an earlier thread. Some details of the carriage can be seen. ....
