The Pentax 10-17mm (not 10-77mm) is a FE. I don't think the Sigma 10-20mm is a FE. They are two different animals.
You first have to determine if you like the FE effect.
If you're looking for a FE zoom, the Pentax is the only one. Tokina has a similar lens (probably the same), but not for Pentax mount (no point).
Also, I don't think the Sigma 10-20mm price is "way less" than that of the Pentax.
