A man had approached the girl and made lewd comments to her and invited her to go with him, cops said.
After the suspect became forceful, the teen managed to escape, before running home and calling the police.
A 50-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted kidnap, possession of an offensive weapon and failing to appear at court.
Officers said he remains in custody and their inquiries are ongoing.
It comes after another possible abduction attempt in Tottenham last month.
A teenage girl was seen screaming for help before being pulled into a black Mercedes in Plevna Crescent, Tottenham on September 18.
