Impressive Photo of World Champ Karpov

Arguably the greatest player of all times Karpov setting example for the youth to follow! It seems he is hunting somewhere in Russia in the late 70's.

A scythe and bell bottoms = Hero of the revolution

p.s. Hunting? that's an agricultural implement he's holding.

Hunting?

Snap!

You can't call snap if you edit your comment after I post mine!

The Grim Reaper?

It looked like some kind of gun at first glance...I am sure IM pfren who has a flock of sheep in the backyard will enlighten us. He is into this kind of stuff.

It's for brush cutting and the harvesting of grass/grass family crops.

It is a hunting instrument. A scythe. It is used by the grim reaper. All he is missing is his horse and cowl, and the scream of "Death to Korchnoi's family" rising from his blood-soaked lips.

Uh, nope! I am too young for that? Are you interested in becoming a catholic priest?
