Looks like a telephoto lens with 9-aperture blades at like f/5 or a little higher. When the aperture is open to around the middle f/stops it causes the bokeh to show the blades, unlike a low f/stop which causes round bokeh balls.

Bokeh is changed by the shape of the aperture blades.

Nothing fancy, these are stepped down aperture blades, simply this is how they close on this lens (not that uncommon)

looks ridiculous.

Reminds me of the 'oldfashioned' aperture blades the lenses of my Praktica MTL 3 camera had.

Looks like they're using Cooke or Angeniuex lenses, those tend to have the ninja star bokeh when stopped down a bit. I think Leica Cine primes have them too.

This is why most modern lenses have rounded aperture blades.
