Officials say the 45-year-old victim was slashed with what appeared to be a pocketknife after a verbal argument with the suspect escalated on the platform.
The victim was taken to Bellevue hospital where he is said to be stable. He was conscious and alert.
L trains were held for a period of time but service has since resumed regular stops with delays between Bedford and 8th avenues.
