Sans Other Rebus 2 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Kuunari' and 'Kuunari Rounded' by Melvastype and 'Balbek Pro' and 'Balbek Pro Cut' by Valentino Vergan (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy block sans with squared proportions and mostly straight-sided forms. The strokes stay uniformly thick, with small, sharp internal cuts and notches that create an incised, slightly distressed look rather than smooth curves. Counters are tight and geometric, terminals are blunt, and several letters show subtle wedge-like bites and slits that add texture while keeping a strong, solid silhouette. Numerals follow the same compact, slabby construction for a consistent, high-impact rhythm.
Best suited to posters, headlines, signage, and packaging where a dense, attention-grabbing wordmark is needed. It also works well for labels, sports or event graphics, and any display setting that benefits from a compressed footprint and rugged texture.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, combining an industrial sign-painting feel with a hint of western or vintage letterpress character. Its carved-in details and compressed stance project toughness and urgency, making the text feel more like a stamped headline than a neutral reading face.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while adding personality through carved notches and stencil-like cuts. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and graphic presence for display typography rather than quiet, continuous reading.
The distinctive cut-ins and narrow apertures become more prominent at larger sizes, where the internal notches read as intentional styling. In longer lines the tight counters and dense color can build quickly, so spacing and size choices will strongly affect clarity.
