Gently, can you provide a reference for Vitamin D and K2 competing for a receptor site? I have never heard this nor have I been able to construct a search that returns any information indicating such an interaction.

Vitamin E and Omega 3 use the same intestinal receptors. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5643801/#:~:text=Vitamin%20E%20and%20K%20follow,vitamin%20D%20absorption%20in%20intestine.
If you are taking a low dose K2 there may be enough receptors left for D. It is easier to separate ingestion. If your multi contains both, they are probably low dose K2.
Just when you get everything settled you realize that availability is not absorption.
This link is a bit of a slug.
D3 has a half life of about 15 days. MK2- 4 < 24 hours MK7 3 days.
