I see you ordered Pegas blades, but you didn't mention which ones. FD Polar #7 is similar to Pegas #7 Skip in size and tpi. Both do not have reverse teeth. For longer lasting blades, I would suggest the Pegas Modified Geometry blades. The big difference is they are more aggressive.
As a Pegas dealer, yes there is a big difference in the quality. One is less vibration. I also like the coating on the table with very few scratches. And the Pegas Chuck Heads.
