The way it’s described in the article, it seems to take at least some effort to make the paper into a viable weapon. I wonder if you would have enough time to do this when you are suddenly attacked. You’d probably have to do some type of defense first and you may drop the paper. If you don’t, you may just be able to fold it up slightly, making it less effective, although it could still work as a distraction when stabbed toward the eye. A magazine might work even better, since it’s sturdier.
As for coins, you could also reach into your pocket and simply hold the coins in your hand while punching. That could add weight and power to your punch without being seen as a \”prepared\” weapon. It would also be faster than putting coins in between your fingers.
