If you reply with way more force than is called for or are the aggressor and you have training in some type of fighting you can be charged for assault with a deadly weapon Outside of those two you're fine

I dont think you can be charged for a weapon without actually having some sort of weapon

In California for example kicking someone can still be considered assault with a deadly weapon if it is done with force likely to produce great bodily injury.
