Pulling a knife seems more London. US would have a gun pulled.

Nah, guns are expensive, knives are useful outside of stabbing people. I'd absolutely expect a knife for a simple holdup here.

Knife murders are also higher stateside: there were 4.96 homicides “due to knives or cutting instruments” in the US for every million of population in 2016.

In Britain there were 3.26 homicides involving a sharp instrument per million people in the year from April 2016 to March 2017.
