You can use 2 hammers if there is room to get a good swing at the side of the knuckle. Use a sledge to hold against the back side of the knuckle and add additional mass to keep the joint from moving. Then use a large ball peen hammer to rap on the other side of the knuckle. This will usually pop the tapered joint loose.
