A man was stabbed to death Saturday night during a knife fight inside a Far Rockaway home — and cops are still searching for his killer.

Police responded to a 911 call around 6:50 p.m. about a brawl in progress at a home on Beach 13th Street, the NYPD said Sunday.

When cops arrived at the Queens residence, they were told two men had been fighting with a knife but fled just before the officers got there.

The NYPD canvassed the local hospitals, and found 33-year-old Nilkinson Leonel Media had gone to St. John’s Hospital with “multiple stab wounds to his chest,” an NYPD spokesman told The Post.

Medina died later that day.

They did not have a description of the suspect as of Sunday morning.
