A weaponmaster among soulknives, the soul kensai eschews heavier armor and the quick formation of her mind blade to dedicate all of her focus on her talents with the blade.

Replaces: Armor Proficiency, Throw Mind Blade, Psychic Strike, Free Draw, 10th level Blade Skill
Benefit: A soul kensai receive the following class features:
Armor & Shield Proficiency: A soul kensai is not proficient with medium armor and shield.
Perfected Blade (Ex): A soul kensai gain proficiency and Weapon Focus feat with an exotic melee weapon of her choice, whenever she shapes her mind blade it must take the form of the chosen weapon. She cannot alter the shape of her mind blade to any of its basic shape or another weapon. This mind blade still retains all special abilities granted to a mind blade, such as the ability to alter its damage types. A soul kensai with the Two-Weapon Fighting feat, or that later gains it, gain Dual Mind Blade as a bonus feat. The soul kensai counts her soulknife level as fighter level for the purpose of meeting the prerequisites of feat, but only for her chosen weapon.
The soul kensai cannot take the mind armor blade skill, or any blade skills which alters the shape of her mind blade.
This alters form mind blade and shape mind blade and replaces throw mind blade.
Nimble (Ex): Starting at 2nd level, a soul kensai gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC while wearing light or no armor. Anything that causes the soul kensai to lose her Dexterity bonus to AC also causes the soul kensai to lose this dodge bonus. This bonus increases by +1 for every four levels beyond 2nd level (to a maximum of +5 at 18th level).
Weapon Training (Ex): A 5th level soul kensai gains the Weapon Training class feature of a Fighter of her level. She must choose a weapon group her chosen weapon belongs to and never gain additional weapon groups and her weapon training bonus increases by +1 at 10th level and each 5 levels thereafter.
This ability replaces free draw and the blade skill gained at 10th.
