A 34-year-old man was stabbed two times just outside a Lower East Side subway station early Wednesday, police said.

The victim was knifed in the neck and lower back on Delancey Street near Essex Street — steps from the F, M, J and Z subway station — minutes before 5:30 a.m., authorities said.

The early morning burst of violence stemmed from a feud with a man who is known to the victim, cops said.

A male suspect wearing a white hoodie fled in an unknown direction, and he was still on the loose later in the day.

The victim was transported to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition, according to the NYPD.
