OEM mulch blades vs Gator mulch blades AND 60” MMM mulch kit installed

[PNWBXer]

Has anyone who’s running a mulch kit on a BX MMM tried BOTH blades? I’ve read of side discharge guys running Gator blades...but couldn’t find a comparison of guys using a mulch kit and gator blades. I’m looking to see if I can create more lift vice the OEM mulch blades....which barely have any lift to them. Also just seeing any performance differences in the cuts..... Set of Gators is only $50 so I might just pull the trigger and try running them next spring....but any performance information would be great. Thanks in advance!

I've run both on my 54" MMM with mulch kit. Probably give a slight edge to the Gator Blades, but not by much.

Good cut too? I assuming it mulches slightly better? I”ve heard the Gators last a looooong long time as far as having to resharpen them. What do you think?

I use the gator blades, mowing and mulching.
