宗峯子 高房 seems to be the first. 

Perhaps 'Sohoshi Takabo, (or Takafusa)'.

Thanks Piers…yes it is Takafusa….a late Edo Kinko tsuba maker.

 

Second one anyone? Thanks!

真恒、有恒....................(?) Masatsune, Aritsune perhaps? Plus kao 花王.

Confidence level, 20% on the first kanji, 80% on the second.
