Morphology

knocker = knock (opaque) = knock + er

The slang sense 'woman's breast' is a figurative or slang extension not derivable from the literal action 'to knock', so the morphological relation is not useful for learners.

Etymology

Knocker or knockers as slang for a woman's breasts is an informal name that likely plays on the simple word knock and the idea of something that draws attention; a helpful way to remember it is to think of a bold, attention‑getting word rather than a polite term.
