Hard Knuckle (ハードナックル Hādo Nakkuru) is Hard Man's special weapon. When utilized, there is a short delay before the knuckle starts moving forward. It is somewhat slow, but has great strength. Mega Man can slightly guide the knuckle up or down once it is moving. It does moderate damage to Spark Man and Shadow Man. Hard Knuckle can also be used to break through Destructible Blocks in Mega Man 3 and Mega Man: The Wily Wars.
