How to copy-paste in Finder when there's no right-click space? I'd be very surprised if this doesn't trouble anyone else.

Sometimes I want to paste a copied file in a Finder window, but there is just no "empty" space for me to right-click on and hit 'Paste item', as right-clicking anywhere on this window will open the right-click context menu for a file/folder.

Usually, I just resize the window till I can find some empty space below all the files/folders for me to right-click on, but sometimes (as in my screenshot below) there are way too many files/folders for to resize the finder window up to that point.



Basically:

How can I be able to right-click somewhere (to know exactly where I'm pasting) and hit 'Paste Item'?

As you can tell, I am currently using the column view, and hope there is a solution in this view.
I also do not just want to hit Cmd+V because it's hard to tell which is the target directory when I have a folder open in the column-view.
The settings-wheel ("Action") button on the Finder acts as a right-click on the current folder. If you left-click on it, you'll get all the options you would on right-clicking the current folder, including "Paste Item". I've indicated it with an arrow below:
