Adjectival use of '-ed' on 'blade' yields 'having blade-like plates', a direct and regular derivation.

Etymology

Bladed comes from blade, a word that once meant 'leaf', and it keeps the idea of a thin, flat shape. So when a mineral is called bladed, it looks like many thin, flat plates or leaves radiating from a point, which explains the name.
