The Claws (射爪 Shasou) are a pair of dangerous items worn on each hand. They make up one of the many new weapons introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. The Claws are designed to move faster when used in melee attacks, although their reach is the shortest of all weapons.
Attributes
Aside from the Orbitars, the Claws are the only known weapons that automatically come in a pair. Pit wears them over each of his hands, and are very fast at close range. Like the Blade, they are also capable of rapid-fire attacks and charged shots. For their special attack, Pit will spin around very fast whilst the Claws produce an onslaught of whirlwind projectiles that will cut through enemy forces. The names of the different Claw variants are usually inspired by animals.
Variations
As of now, five variations of the Claws have been revealed:

Claws: Brown Tiger (射爪ブラウンタイガー Shasou Buraun Taigaa) |
The basic Claws, which are pictured above. They strike with the precision of a mighty tiger. | File:Claws tiger.png |
|
Claws: Red Wolf (射爪レッドウルフ Shasou Reddo Urufu) |
A pair of Claws engulfed in flames, which can set enemies ablaze. They glow like the eyes of a powerful wolf. | File:Claws wolf.png |
|
Brawler Claws (射爪オレパンチ Shasou Ore Panchi) |
An oddly clawless version of the Claws shaped like clenched fists. They likely specialize in bludgeoning rather than cutting. For its projectile attack, the weapon fires a blast of swinging fists. | File:Claws fist.png |

This fourth variation has seemingly transparent blades. |

A fifth variant that appears to fit over the entire hand, shown in the very first trailer. It appears to have claws on all fingers. | ??? |
