You could take an eye-dropper and drip a drop of water on the claw....That might cause the old skin to loosen up. Let is soak for a while and after 15 min try to touck the claw with a tweezer. You may even try to pull the old skin off, but try this very gently!!!!! If it does not give, leave it and try another drop of water. You should also mist or moisten a litte corner of the enclosure, but not wet, you want no mycosis!! If this does not work, put the scorp in a delicup, with moistened substrate and keep it dark and warm.....
Good luck....
