Honestly, Alfred was still musing over how a paper plane could be considered less dangerous than a knife. Aimed just right, a paper plane could take out an eye or at least scratch one's cornea. Not that he had any experience in this area or anything. But note that he'd much rather have someone coming after him with a butter knife than a paper plane. Also note he said butter knife. Others were much much more dangerous.

He filed back into the classroom with the others, tossing a butter knife into the air and catching it, and retook his seat placing his feet on the desk with legs crossed at the ankles. "Something like this," he started, holding up the butter knife after another successful catch, "is much easier to transfigure than anything sharper would be. Like, say, those swords and things they used in ancient Rome. And anything moving, like say," he quickly transfigured the butter knife into a paper plane using "Scarpafors!" and threw it in a random direction, "that plane would be even harder because it could move or be moved out of the way of your aim."
