Like anything, train your weakness. Like the others have said, just start lightly punching things (i.e. punching bag, makiwara, whatever) and work up. It may take time, but your knuckles will get used to it.

There are many things you can try. I used to do Knuckle-ups but at the gym I goto my personal trainer said its bad for you (not sure) You could try hitting a heavy bag, hitting a sandba etc.. Remember the world wasnt built in a day. Gradually move up hitting softer things to harder things. You can also try https://www.google.com and look up ironpalm training. You do not have to train your palm, you can train fingers, knuckles and other things.

 

EDIT: Also it could depend how you are punching. Wrist angles, where your thumb is placed, angle of your punch etc..

when doing knuckle push-ups, focus on keeping only the first two knuckles in contact with the ground. This will keep your shoulder, elbow, wrist aligned properly and will toughen the knuckles you want to toughen. There shouldn't be any problems when done properly, I've been a personal trainer for 20 years and consider knuckle push-ups a very reasonable way to condition. Of course, if one doesn't want any risk of injury, then one should not be taking karate anyway. It always amuses me to hear people that are against knuckle push-ups and makiwara because of the injury risk, go on about how tough they are and how they like to fight, etc... :lol:
