I’m not sure that is something police routinely carry.

Perhaps a bean-bag shotgun should be in every supervisor's patrol car trunk, for situations just like this one. Remember the recent incident with the old man holding a knife in the nursing home? The old man was gunned down. One bean bag round would have ended that incident relatively peacefully.

I often wonder how police in Britain handle such situations.

Many people don’t understand how quickly a man with a knife can close ground a kill a person with a gun

Yes. The Tueller Rule. That cannot be overlooked.
