The finger of a claw is called a digit. It is the part of the claw that is used for grasping or manipulation.

The adze eye in a claw hammer is a hole at the bottom of the claw that allows for easier removal of nails by providing a pivot point for the nails to be levered out. This feature increases efficiency and precision when pulling out nails with the claw hammer.
Some lobsters have one claw larger than the other due to a phenomenon called bilateral gynandromorphy, where individuals have both male and female characteristics. This can result in one side having a larger claw typical of a male lobster, while the other side has a smaller claw like a female lobster. It is a rare occurrence in crustaceans.
