The blade is the later end of the mid period production all the rest is early to mid production fittings.
I like the looks of it...what is normal to see is all mid period production materials used ..which all should be plated fittings and the scabbard painted black and not anodized.
Wait for more comments

It looks good. Just what you'd want to see.

Those crossguards look like solid nickel at first glance, but I think they are plated. What's unusual is the blued scabbard. I like it too.
