He can make only one attempt to materialize the mind blade per round, however."The designers thought drawing your own weapon more than once/round was overpowered for some reason.  So instead, you get the magical ability to do a full thrown weapon attack with your crappy mindblade the same level the party Wizard learns to cast Wish."Multiple Throw (Ex)At 17th level and higher, a soulknife can throw a number of mind blades per round equal to the number of melee attacks he could make."Which, by strict RAW, even by that point STILL means you can only materialize multiple blades per round when throwing them only!  Actually, it negelcts the whole materializing rules completely and just says you can throw it multiple times, so that could also be interpreted as the same mind blade returning to your hand between attacks or splitting up into different blades for each attack.6) It's complicated.  Soulknife is a very weak class with absurdly restrictive abilities with his mindblade, you'd need significant DM intervention to make it work.</blockquote>
