Examples from texts

Greebo strolled in alongside her with the gentle swagger that makes women thoughtful and men's knuckles go white.
Матушка неторопливо приближалась к ним в сопровождении Грибо. Тот двигался с мягкой вкрадчивостью, от которой женщины мгновенно начинали о чем-то размышлять, а у мужчин чесались костяшки пальцев.

He closed his right hand into a fist and slipped the quarters between his fingers, creating a makeshift set of brass knuckles.
Затем, стиснув правый кулак, он втиснул монеты между пальцами, создав что-то вроде импровизированного кастета.

I glanced at him across the table, his nails chipped and black with engine oil, his knuckles scraped, the smells of the gas station--dust, sweat, and gasoline--on his clothes.
Как он изменился! Натруженные, загрубевшие руки, обломанные ногти черны от машинного масла, одежда провоняла пылью, потом и бензином – заправка есть заправка.

Bloom was sitting on the swaying seat, his elbows braced on his knees, cracking his knuckles, beside the other candidate, a man named Moore.
Уперев локти в колени и похрустывая пальцами, Блум сидел на шатающейся скамейке рядом с другим новичком сержантской школы по фамилии Мур.

Then he was licking his bruised knuckles and looking at the bare stick, while the skull lay in two pieces, its grin now six feet across.
Потом он сосал разбитые кулаки, смотрел на голую палку, а череп, расколотый надвое, ухмылялся теперь уже огромной шестифутовой ухмылкой.

I'm going to sit here and keep watch" He scrubbed his eyes with his knuckles and tried to stifle a rending yawn.
Буду всю ночь сидеть и сторожить. – Он потер кулаками глаза и едва сдержал душераздирающий зевок.

Левая рука сжала меч так сильно, что побелели костяшки пальцев.

I remember, too, late that night, beating the bushes with my clenched fist until my knuckles were gashed and bleeding from the broken twigs.
Помню также, как поздно ночью я колотил кулаками по кустам до тех пор, пока не исцарапал все руки о сломанные сучья.

She shoved her books into her locker, scraping her knuckles in the process. Keenan stayed beside her, an unwanted shadow she couldn't shake.
В обеденный перерыв она так свирепо запихнула учебники в шкафчик, что оцарапала руку. Кинан торчал рядом, как тень, не желающая уходить.

Finally with an air of resolute, even of shrinking delicacy, he knocked with his knuckles at the door.
Наконец с решительным, но деликатнейшим видом, даже как бы сгорбившись от деликатности, постучал костями пальцев к соседкам.

nay, your muslin ruffles, being somewhat soiled, give to your knuckles a sort of rural rusticity, as I may call it."
А запачканные муслиновые манжеты придают твоим кулакам какой-то неотесанный, деревенский вид, иначе и не назовешь.
