First sayagaki is Awataguchi ikkanshi tadatsuna hori do saku

Second sayagaki is X Masataka (he was a shinshinto hamabe smith)

First mei is MasaX (kao) - could be Masataka, but can't tell

Second mei X masayuki (looks like a Showa non-traditional sword signature)

Third mei - Shoji chikuzen no daijo taikei naotane (this is a BIG shinshinto mei and should be further inspected for legitimacy/forgery/gimei)

Third sayagaki is same naotane signature

 

Edit: looks like Tom and I were working at the same time

Thanks for the help joe!

I dont really think its that masayuki though, the examples of his look a little more flowing, and the rust on the nakago is alot deeper than showa period. The masayuki sword is a katana with a beautiful ornate dragon horimono and 3 Sanskrit characters on it.
