Dear Sherif.

 

With just these to go on not a great deal can be said but guessing suggests that the first is gunto mounted but with a civil tsuba so possibly an earlier blade kitted out for the war, the second looks like a civil wakizashi.  (This really is a guess but might be signed Sadayuki.)

 

Not sure what Zyn is but using it anywhere near a Japanese sword might be a 'sin', fittings included.

 

You might find it easier to post more images if you resize your photographs.

 

Look forward to seeing some more.

 

All the best.

Another reduction method (in my simpleton way) I have found useful is to take a picture, then go to your Gallery...open the same picture....take a screen shot of it.....a couple of times if you wish.....the meg's just reduce dramatically with each 'copy'.
