CK lets you ignore rank requirments but you must meet all other requirements. So overrun requires charge, and charge needs a d10 in fighting. Combat sense needs a d8 notice. If you want to pick them up I would say you need to go back to your skills and adjust the points. It would be pricey because to raise the skills correctly it would cost 4 skill points.

That initself might not be too expensive if you adjust your attributes. You could have a d10 agility and d8 smarts pretty easily if you drop your str to a d4 and spirit to a d8.

The other option would be to choose different combat edges that fall more in line with your current attributes and skills. You can agment this by picking warriors gift as a power if having access to more combat edges is super important to you.
Right, how's this - I added Warrior's Gift when I eventually found it (SWDp139). The combat edge Overrun has been replaced with Tricky Fighter and Combat Sense has been removed. No skill stats changes required, I think?
This is getting closer... Warriors Gift is a power ( CKs get 3 powers of their list in the tomorrow legion, one of which could be warriors gift), it is separate from the combat edges. So you could go with Tricky Fighter and one more combat edge. Then take Warriors Gift as one of your 3 powers.

I swapped Dirty Fighter for the Florentine combat edge, figured it would go better with split psi-blades

Cool, edges are getting closer to being good to go. Just a couple of things:

Warriors gift is not an edge but it is a power that CKs can take.

You have tricky fighter listed as your other CK edge. While you can ignore rank requirements, you must meet the other requirements, just specify that tricky fighter is agility based.

I cleaned up the thread for the stuff you've already done. I also expanded your sheet out to the proper number of replies as well.

I have three powers.
Tricky Fighter is agility based, I get that.
Are we done with edges?

Its looking really good. Thanks HC for cleaning up the sheet. Pan, take a look at the powers. In the trappings part tell me what they each look like. Try to describe what happens when for example boost trait is activated, and then if possible come up with a cool “Trapping Name”.

For eaxmple:
CK waterknight, has the deflection power and it looks like a ton of moisture in the air surrounding him causing foes to miss him. I call it Liquid Liner.
