According to the text of the feat it gives you the designation of psionic character. As a psionic character you gain 2 power point reserve and can take various feats.The only text linking mindblade to power point reserves is the parenthetical in the wild talent class feature entry of the soulknife class.Wild TalentA soulknife gains Wild Talent as a bonus feat. (This class feature provides the character with the psionic power he needs to materialize his mind blade, if he has no power points otherwise.) This could be legacy text that was meant to be excised when they changed from 3.0 to 3.5 as most 3.5 psionic powers do not require a psionic reserve but have been replaced by other mechanics such as the psionic focus or the soulknife's psychic strike recharge mechanic.However RAW the parenthetical still can make sense.If it did require a power point reserve the last phrase of the parenthetical makes sense.However it still makes sense even if you don't need a power point reserve. It then just implies there is another way a mindblade could be psionically powered.The problem with interpreting the need for a reserve is that you must infer that extra requirement from the ambiguous phrasing of the parenthetical.When I read it I do not naturally read that parenthetical statement as a power point reseve requirement.</blockquote>
