the 2nd blade you posted has no mountings and is in an old storage scabbard. It is evident from the construction and shape that the blade was not one from Go Yoshihiro. If you want a sword with mounts, the Uda blade is not what you are looking for. Fred is correct in the statement that the fresh polish and paper are about equal in cost to the asking price. Having a mounting made would cost thousands and would not be worth the investment.
