Many people love this look, but if you feel the brass is getting dirty and covered in grime then you can clean your knocker with lukewarm soapy water and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials as they can scratch the surface of the brass. For a more radiant sheen, use a good quality brass polish. Alternatively, Ketchup or Brown Sauce makes a surprisingly good brass polish. Apply with a soft cloth and wipe off after about a minute. Then wash with lukewarm soapy water.
