The Home Office does not hold the information requested.

The Home Office collects and publishes data for offences involving knives or sharp instruments for selected offences in England and Wales, at police force area level only.

These data are published quarterly, available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/675512/prc-knife-open-data-march2009-onwards-tables.ods
