It took the Knights just under nine overs to chase down the Stags total of 99 at Hamilton's Seddon Park.
Northern's spinners did the majority of the damage during Central's innings, Anton Devcich and Ish Sodhi took five wickets between them to help stymy the Stags' attack.
Paceman Scott Kuggleijn also proved a handle taking two wickets off his four overs.
Stags opener George Worker offered up the only resistance from the visitors, reaching 37 off 33 balls but struggled with support.
Devcich proved just as deadly with the bat in the Knights' innings, top scoring with 51 off 24 balls, his 50 coincided with the winning runs.
He was helped by Dean Brownlie on 28 while fellow opener Tim Seifert managed 23 off 12 before being dismissed.
