He could have an emergency blade for his forearm in case he's seperated from a weapon or has to stop sliding off a cliff (ala Jango Fett on Kamino). Aside from that, they probably just made his body as close to a human's and called it a day. It would be intimidating if his skin peeled off his face and half of his head was cybernetic too (based off of Qrow's admitedly joking remark). There is that small metal plate that is clearly visible above the eyebrow on the same side of his face.
