The Deathclaw gauntlet requires schematics, which you can find in a few places around the Wasteland, the simplest is in the F. Scott Key Trail & Campground (SW corner) in a trailer.

To build it you need a Deathclaw hand, medical brace, leather belt and some wonderglue. It's a great weapon, especially if you have good unarmed skill. I usually used it for sneak kills on enemies, and I got one hit kills nearly every time except for the really strong enemies like feral ghoul reavers, super mutant overlords etc. For those however I more often than not managed to land a paralyzing punch, and was then able to finish them off while they were stunned.

Another great thing about the Deathclaw gauntlet is that it ignores armor, so no matter what the enemy is wearing you get the same effect.
