Not quite.
It is perfectly legal to defend both yourself and someone else to prevent damage and bodily harm.
one caveat is there always will be judicial review to consider whether the action of the defender is appropriate and measured.
For instance, this guy thretening to stab, gets a smack on the head and drops down. At that specific point in time the imminent danger is gone . Al violent action beyond that may be considered unwarranted and fit for prosecution.
Caveat 2: When the attacker is a non western alien, things get dicey, as the protection of offensive aliens by the government is a higher priority politically than protecting the native population.
By creating this vague grey area, people usually do not know what to do.
Another aspect is, the violence in Finland is rather new. Apart from invading Russians, the finnish society is rather peaceful. The Helsinki police chief mentioned this in his comments that since 2015, they see rape exponentially on the rise in hos city. It coincides with the advent of iraqi refugees. ( 🤔🙊)

Good points...I was exaggerating a bit cause you never know what the police might do never mind the politics...

It would be worth the jail time.
