For the cestus, I'd say possible with some penalties (maybe 10% for a light
cestus, more for the heavy) because a cestus is designed for impact and
hampers the grip on another weapon.

For the claws I'd say no, or half skill at best, because the blades
seriouusly restrict the user's hand freedom, and may prevent holding
anything (I'm not sure the whay fighting claws are designed and held by the
user)
