In addition to the flash suppression, the end can quickly cut barbed wire by pushing the muzzle onto a strand of wire and firing a round.
One of the most distinctive features of the Valmet rifles, including the M62 and all subsequent variations, is the open-ended, three prong flash suppressor with a bayonet lug on its lower side. The RK 95 TP is a more modern, improved version of the RK 62. The RK 62 has a three-pronged flash suppressor, and a groove for a specially designed knife bayonet, which can be used alone as a combat knife. It is the basis of the IMI Galil, an Israeli-made assault rifle with many similarities. Between 19 350.000 M62 rifles were produced jointly by Valmet and Sako. The RK 62 uses the same 7.62×39mm cartridge as the AK-47. The RK 62 was designed in 1962 and is based on the Polish licensed version of the Soviet AK-47 design. It is the standard issue infantry weapon of the Finnish Defence Forces. The RK 62, officially 7.62 RK 62 and commercially M62, is an assault rifle manufactured by Valmet and Sako.
