"Tape measure"
I measured my fists. Does well enough.
And know the sizes of some common items; paper currency, coins, hand, arm, length of stride. You can use these to get a close approximation.
My hand span is exactly 7", and my thumb knuckles are exactly 1" long, with the nailbed exactly halfway back.
