How well does the blade fit into the scabbard? Is it well fitted around the mouth?
David,

I have not tested the pommel material yet. I'm going slow and need to learn more about the testing.

The blade fits the scabbard very well around the mouth and also at the bottom. The mouth of the scabbard where the long end of Gangya sits shows that maybe the tip of the Gangya might have broken off. I will take more photos tomorrow in good light.
