Take your knives. Take a pair of handguns (take some time to google them if you need to). Weld the two together in a way you like and think would work (blade along the top/bottom of the barrel, blade going straight up, blade extending from the bottom of the clip, whatever). Check to see if the welding is obstructing anything. Apply transformation technology to obstructed areas (and, optionally, the rest of the weapon). Then move on to the aesthetics and make the weapon more than an uncolored crome shape.

That's waaaaaaay too far out of what we've been shown in canon, and I'm fairly certain they simply can't do that kind of thing, period.

And the solid smoke thing just falls back to the main problem of it being a technique all on its own. Hell, fighting style would probably take backseat to an ability like that, so I'd even say it's a step backwards.
