The recipient has small, sharp spikes that can slide from hands, wrists, elbows, knees and feet. This makes climbing much easier and allows melee attacks when otherwise unarmed.

Benefit: A recipient with climbing claws gains a +5 equipment bonus on Climb checks and is always considered to have climbing equipment. If the recipient beats the DC of a Climb check by 5 or more, he is not considered flat-footed.

Additionally, the climbing claws act as spurs, though they deal damage as a creature two size categories smaller than the recipient.
