AGEE POINTS

AGEE POINT MADE BY BOB
THOMAS
DONNIE MCKINNIS

Many of today's
flintknappers try to specialize in making a few different point types and make
one or two very well. Bob Thomas's signature point type is the Agee.
He's very good at making them. So good in fact that it's difficult, if
not impossible, to identify his new ones from old ones. Yes he's good.

1 HAYES AND 3 AGEE POINTS

These four Caddo culture type points were made by Bob Thomas. The
one on the left is a Hayes point and the other three are Agee type
points. All are made of heat treated Arkansas Novaculite. |

Bob
Thomas has been flintknapping for many years. He's been making Agee
points for at least a quarter of a century. Since he lives in Arkansas
it's logical that he would be making points found in that area. He can
also make pretty good looking Daltons, Cahokia points and eccentrics.

DONNIE MCKINNIS COLLECTION
This Agee point is another of Bob Thomas's fine examples of his
skill at pressure flaking. This point is made of translucent white
Arkansas Novaculite. |

Bob is a very skilled flintknapper and people are collecting his
work. Each one is unique and one thing is for sure----no two are
exactly alike.
