Are knuckles pushups better than normal push ups?
If you are referring to making your "knuckle bones" stronger, no, not directly. Performing any type of weight or resistance training will improve overall bone density and strength. So in an indirect way, your knuckle bones would get stronger ... but so would other bones. The primary benefit of performing pushups on your knuckles is that it avoids the traditional wrist flexion that you experience when you have your hands flat on the floor during a pushup. Bending the wrists back can be uncomfortable for some people, or lead to wrist injury. By performing them on your knuckles, you put the wrist in a non-flexed, neutral position, mitigating these risks. However, knuckle pushups are also uncomfortable for some people because there is very little flesh between the knuckles and skin. Over time, you may become less sensitive to it, but some people never do. If wrist flexion is a concern, you can always perform your pushups using pushup bars or something like the Perfect Pushup.
