Naginata with 8 characters on one side and 14 on the other. Can anyone help with translation?

Looks like Bizen No Kami Ju Osafune Sadayuki?

Looks like 備前国住長船源兵衛尉祐定作之 = Bizen no Kuni ju Osafune Genbei no Jo Sukesada saku kore.

The nengo reads ‘a lucky day in August, on the 2nd year of Eiroku (1559) [永禄二年八月吉日]

Thank you, I am so excited!! I am a new collector and I have much to learn. It would seem that this was a great find!! Genbei no Jo Sukesada appears to be one of the best sword makers based on my research. Thank you for your time!! I greatly appreciate the help.

That looks a very good beginning.

It certainly beats the snot out of my first sword.
