Wayne McMahon, 38, of Kitt Green Road, Marsh Green, had appeared before Wigan justices to deny stealing a bike lock from Halfords and an Easter egg from Aldi on April 5 and also to using threatening behaviour, menacing Scott Highton and wielding the sharpened object on the same day.
But he was found guilty after a trial and was also convicted of failing to answer bail for a July 18 court hearing.
Back before justices, McMahon was ordered to complete 30 days of rehabilitation activities and undergo alcohol dependency treatment.
