Herbert Theodore Jones II, of 6265 Kimball Court, was transported to the Hernando County Jail and was held without bond.
The Hernando County Sheriff's Office responded shortly after 1:20 a.m. Saturday at the house. The victim and two witnesses said Jones became irate at his 21-year-old son for playing videogames and slapped the machine out of his hands and onto the ground, the report showed.
The son stood up to Jones, who then grabbed the sword from under his bed and pointed it at the victim's chest, deputies said.
A woman in the house took the sword away from Jones and his son grabbed him in a headlock, at which time the suspect started biting the victim in an attempt to break free, according to the sheriff's office.
The victim, who suffered bruising and cuts, declined medical treatment, deputies said.
Jones said the argument started when his son refused to give back his cell phone. He also said he grabbed the sword after his son stood in front of him and taunted him, according to the report.
