The Talon is a Ninja-style weapon, and can only be used when the Ninja fighting style is active. All Weapons in Nioh 3 also come with their own Skill Tree, which can provide Martial Arts for Samurai and Ninjutsu (Ninja Skills) for Ninja.

A pair of talons wielded by martial artists devoted to the mastery of hand-to-hand combat techniques. Wearing these talons, they can take advantage of any opening in their opponent's guard to deliver a fatal wound. Being able to trap an enemy's weapon with the talons also opens up the possibility of numerous techniques that would be unthinkable with cestuses.
