The Finnish ones had the vote :p

I think a Russian M91 rod will fit, but I know that some M91 rods were made in Finland.
Seems there is quite a wide variety of designs & styles within the remit of a basic M91 rod, aside from the shorter M91/30 version.

IF I cannot source any cheap/2nd-hand I'll have to go down the route of having some of each made up, as the basic steel that they're made form is easy to buy & not expensive & it'll be an easy job to turn the thread on one end & swage a knurled/slotted end onto the other...
