Williams is accused of assaulting Alcott Forbes with the weapon on September 18 in New Providence.
Following the defendant’s not-guilty plea, he was granted $5,000 bail with one or two sureties.
His trial is set for October 27.
A 21-year-old American tourist, meanwhile, was fined $300 after admitting to having $60 worth of marijuana.
Magistrate Samuel McKinney charged Camron Lewis of Illinois with possession of dangerous drugs.

After pleading guilty to the charges, Lewis was fined $300 or risk one month in prison.
