I would suggest you look on the Safety & Compliance tab for "Customer Restriction Type".
However, according to seller help (here: https://sellercentral.amazon.co.uk/help/hub/reference/G201852820) you cannot sell bladed articles via FBM which require age verification under the Offensive Weapons Act 2019, including kitchen knives and chef's knives.
You can continue to sell eligible bladed articles through FBA, provided they are not FBA prohibited products (search seller help for the list of prohibited products). No bladed products can be sold through the FBA channel, apart from the four exceptions summarised as follows:
Permitted Products
(i) Razor blades permanently enclosed in a cartridge or housing with less than 2 mm of blade exposed
(ii) Knives including ordinary cutlery sets with spoons and forks
(iii) Kitchen Knives and Chef’s Knives
(iv) Folding pocket-knives with a blade no longer than three inches
Only (iii) and (iv) require the knife flag.

Hi Vanguard_Survival,
To add the age restriction tags to your products you will need to do this via a product upload sheet.
All you need to do is download the relevant category file and add the restriction type to the file. You can find this in the file under "Compliance" > "Age restriction" > "uk_18_knife".
As @Seller_hOZNPw7G8FIjl mentioned you will also need to add them as FBA offers via the upload to ensure the offers are added as FBA. Otherwise, you may receive listing violations.
You can add this in the file by selecting "Fulfillment" > "AMAZON_EU".
Happy selling.
Thanks,
