I could be missrembering, but that is how I think it would work (with out bothering to look it up).

Because a claw is used as a secondary attack when used with a weapon. What happens is, you get Full Dagger attack, at full BAB, then the claw at a -5 (so it would be at a 6) in addition to your full round attack. Now, I know unnarmed strike can be used offhanded, but I don't think that natural weapons even can be.

For your normal attack bonus of +11/+6 (including Str), during a full attack you would get two iterative dagger attacks at +11 and +6 and one claw attack at +6. Since the claw is treated as a secondary natural weapon, it has a -5 attack penalty (already figured into that +6) and it inflicts 1/2 Str bonus on damage.
