Hi there. The build isn't bad at all for your first go but there are a few things.
I must warn you that by NO means am I an expert and there are MANY others here that are much more qualified to be assisting you...BUT, I am also working on a Kat/SR so I thought I would try to help a bit at least.
First off, I want to make sure that you are aware of "the rule of 5". You can only have the same set bonus (no matter what set it's from) up to 5 times. Anything more than that is a complete waste. To check this in MIDS, click on "Window" at the top and then "Sets and Bonuses." Look on the right at the "Effect Breakdown" section. If you see something that says "cap" in red print, you know that you have exceeded the rule of 5 somewhere. Scroll down to find the culprit.
You have exceeded your +5% to recharge. Others may disagree with me but I think one of the best things about having a Kat/SR is that you don't have to rely on Divine Avalanche to achieve the softcap. I would recommend dropping it entirely. You would also lose that set of Crushing Impacts in there which are providing your extra (and useless) +5% to recharge.
Second...you are overslotted on Practiced Brawler. Its duration is 120 seconds and its initial recharge time is 200 seconds. This means that it doesn't take much to get the recharge time lower than the duration of the power. You should be ok just putting one recharge in there. Or, since you'll have a high global recharge that will still have the recharge time of the power lower than the duration of the power, you could just put an end reduction in there. Practiced Brawler provides sufficient KB protection so you could lose that Blessing of the Zephyr KB reduction that you have in Combat Jumping and do something with the extra slot.
Third, I would remove the Crushing Impact Dam/Recharge IO from Gamblers Cut and replace it with an Achilles Heel proc. GC recharges really fast already and having that proc in there to debuff your enemies' defense is a wonderful thing.
I'll try to get another look later if nobody better qualified responds. I hope this helps!
Just for the heck of it, here's the build I'm currently messing with in MIDS. Another poster here gave me a bunch of help with it but I'm still trying to tweak it. I just thought I'd put it on there in case it gave you any ideas.
I hope all of this helps! Please let me know.

Hey guys, I've played around in mids a bit before, but this is my first build from scratch. I did pull on some articles for ideas.
I have a few goals in mind here, and some of my choices were to stay in theme with a kind of super fast samurai-like swordsman.
1) I def wanted the melee/range/aoe softcaps by endgame
2) I wanted a nice global boost to acc and recharge
3) Wanted a strong dose of stealth
What do you think? Be gentle, I've only been around for 7 weeks or so
