Ulf Karson says:
" from shukumine seiken sensei we have the terms: Oniken means outstanding
fist (Knuckle) where the index knuckle is the impact area of the small surface.
The meaning of kōken is a more or less solid fist (? ) using the middle finger
knuckle. Oniken is in our three kata: Naihanchi, passai and kusanku. Kōken is
not used in our kata.
While Oniken is used more frequently directly, the kōken is often used in a
more circular blow.
The image is from page 58 of the book of shukumine seiken karate tanren
sankagetsu and oniken and kōken of shinkaratedo kyohan page 110.
While the entire martial art is unique, a single part is usually of common
knowledge.
If we take the question about the use of index knuckle in tachimura kata. Yes,
it is used in the three classic kata naihanchi, passai and kusanku. I mentioned
we call it oniken, some call it hitosashiyubi ipponken, some call it shōken,
Kosaken, etc. Some asked that it was just like Phoenix's eye fist in Chinese
Martial Arts. The same technique exists in the martial arts of southern and
Northern China. So, although the name (the term) is different, it is the same
manual configuration and the same use."

View how Ginchin Funakoshi strikes with
his fist, not what people thing Shotokan uses.
However using Bing I found
another meaning for Koken –
