No it has the wrong (cross with swords style), arms attaching the suspension ring. They should be smooth. If you check out some of the rk kvk threads you'll be able to see the difference.

Ed: This thread has examples of both to show the difference, the one that begins it being a stunning example. You can see how the arms that hold the suspension ring should look. There are shots on page three have examples with and without swords side by side.
