bearings dont knock usually. 
 
more than likely cv joint, 
ball joint maybe,  could also be any suspension part that is loose.

think when the big end bearing goes it knocks 
 
To check if it is, will need to strip engine down.

its Drive shaft joints. 
fucked mate. (needs new ones) 
but apparantly not a serious problem if you can put up with the noise. and vibration.
