Rival political members exchanged a few heated words outside a Newtown bookstore on Thursday evening.

Seconds later, men were trying to slash and bash each other with a broken fluorescent light tube, 1.2 metre metal pole, and golf club.

Police will allege members of the nationalist group United Patriots Front got into a brawl with members of the far left organisation Antifa​ on Enmore Road just after 8pm.

The confrontation was sparked when Daniel Evans and friend Ralph Cerminara allegedly took photos and a video outside the Black Rose Anarchist Library, according to court documents.

Police allege the men were recognised, prompting three other men to enter the bookstore and retrieve a stash of weapons.

"They ran inside and came back with baseballs bats, golf clubs, and a fluro tube and they smashed the fluro tube, they came at us," said Mr Cerminara on a video he posted on the Facebook group page called Left Wing Bigots and Extremists exposed.

Mr Evans and Mr Cerminara ran to the nearby Caltex service station.

It was at this point police allege Montgomery Strange, 23, slashed Mr Cerminara's left hand with a broken, fluorescent tube.

Another man Christian Enright, 21, stood by threatening to use a 1.2 metre pole.

"I've been stabbed in the hand, they attacked us with their bats ...," Mr Cerminara said on video.

A man who has yet to be arrested swung a golf club five times at Mr Evans, eventually striking him on the shoulder.

Mr Evans allegedly retaliated by smashing a glass bottle over his head.

Police say Mr Evans suffered a cut which required six stitches at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital.

Officers were called and arrested four men but are still looking for the fifth man who was armed with a golf club.

Mr Strange was charged with affray, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and being armed with intent to commit actual bodily harm.

He was refused bail before Newtown Local Court on Friday.

His co-accused, Mr Enright was charged with affray and being armed with intent to assault.

He was granted bail before the same court.

Despite their injuries, police also charged Mr Cerminara and Mr Evans with affray and they are expected to appear before court in February.
