I picked this one up and the more I look at it the more confused I get. It says Portofino over Hand Made on the left side of the shank, Italy on the bottom of the shank, and Autograph on the right hand side. The wood doesn't look quite good enough for a Sav. Autograph which I hoped for initially. The stem looks like a generic or replacement. Does any one know what kind of pipe I have , brand wise?

I have a standing search on ebay for "Autograph" and a Portofino shows up once in a while. Pipedia lists the name as an Italian maker, but has no information. They seem to be decent quality judging from the pictures but nowhere near a Savinelli Autograph. My guess would be that it's a good buy at $35.00, let us know how it smokes.
