The knuckles are a weapon in Fallout 4 .
Characteristics [ ]
Metal knuckles designed for increased damage during punching by reducing stress on the attacker's hand. They have a medium swing speed, and punches are delivered in a right-straight punch and a right hook. Only one set of knuckles may be equipped at a time. The ability to pierce armor or add bleeding damage that cannot be mitigated allows this weapon to yield a high damage potential against enemies at lower levels.
