A "knuckle man" has been defined by 'The Free Dictionary' as a mining engineering term for "a worker who connects mine cars to and disconnects them from cables and also couples cars into trains". The knucklemen characters in this movie though do not do this but are miners who work on a mine drilling site. However, the meaning of knucklemen has more to do with fist-fighting between men, the knuckle of the word relating to the knuckle of a fist used in brawling. The Australian colloquial phrase "knuckle sandwich" is Australian slang for a punch as in a fight or punch-up.
