Asking for help with Mei - Bizen Koku Osafune Kiyomitsu?

Hello Forum, 

 

I would like to kindly ask for help with reading two meis. One is a Wakizashi and the second is from the Tsuba it came with. Would somebody be so kind as to read them for me? The seller said it the sword is Bizen Koku Osafune Kiyomitsu, Muromachi, 1530-1550. Can this be correct? I am very new to collecting, the age certainly looks right to me, but better to ask :)
Do you happen to know anything about this particular smith, Kiyomitsu?

 

The Tsuba is curious as well. 

 

Thank you very much in advance.

Tsuba is "Bushû jû Masanaga" (Bushû-Itô school).

The reading of the Nakago seems correct.

 

Hi, 

thank you. 

you all seem to be able to write Japanese letters digitally :)

I want to save everything I can, how do you write Bushû jû Masanaga with Japanese letters?

 

thanks, 

 

Szab
