Default Two-Handed Punch w/ Brass Knuckles?

Very quick question, would it be reasonable to get the damage bonus for Brass Knuckles when making a Two-Handed Punch (Martial Arts, p. 81)?

Yes. In our karate (gojuryu shoreikan), we learn to use tekkos, which are brass knuckles. Our tekkos are much heavier than usual brass knuckles (1.7 pounds each) and we always use two (one in each hand). We have a lot of two-handed punch techniques, especially to temples, shoulders and floating ribs.

In GURPS point of view, now, nothing page 81 sounds to prevent it. So, it makes sense both in reality and in GURPS.
