A person who works despite a strike is going on. Synonym: Strikebreaker, Black-Leg. Knobsticks are employed worldwide since the 19th century, wherever workers go on strike or engage in related actions. United Kingdom laws permit strikebreaking, and courts have significantly restricted the right of unions to punish members who act as Knobsticks. In the U.S, employers enjoy the unrestricted right to permanently replace strikers with strikebreakers.
