The Mantis Blades are a pair of retractable, cybernetic forearm blades designed for close-quarters combat, featuring a sleek, metallic construction with sharp, angular edges that extend from the forearm. The blades are made of high-grade, polished titanium alloy, giving them a reflective, futuristic appearance with a slight blue or purple neon glow along the edges when activated. The housing unit is integrated seamlessly into the arm, with visible hydraulic mechanisms and circuitry that light up when the blades are deployed, emphasizing their cybernetic nature.
