Hello Guest! Did you know that ProjectKorra has an official Discord server? A lot of discussion about the official server, development process, and community discussion happens over there. Feel free to join now by clicking the link below.
There is no permission for this, as it's not really a feature. You can already bend with "items" in your hand, but for weapons, it is configurable per element in the config (default is fire can bend with weapons but no other element, I believe).
