A heavy, angular serif with sharply cut, wedge-like terminals and frequent triangular notches that create a chiseled, faceted silhouette. Strokes are mostly straight and vertical, with stepped joins and chamfered corners that give each glyph a carved, ornamental feel rather than smooth calligraphic modulation. Counters are compact and often polygonal, and many letters feature small interior cut-ins that increase texture and darkness in running text. Overall spacing reads sturdy and compact, with strong vertical rhythm and emphatic tops and feet.
Best suited for display applications where strong personality and impact are desirable—posters, headlines, storefront or event signage, product labels, and logo wordmarks. It works especially well for short phrases and titling where the angular detailing can be appreciated without overwhelming the layout.
The font conveys a classic poster tone with a frontier-meets-blackletter attitude—bold, declarative, and slightly theatrical. Its crisp cuts and ornamental edges suggest heritage signage, saloon-era display typography, and dramatic headline styling rather than understated reading.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, period-evocative display serif with carved, decorative detailing—aimed at instantly recognizable titles that feel historic, rugged, and attention-grabbing.
In the sample text, the dense black color and plentiful interior notches create a patterned texture that stays coherent at display sizes but can become visually busy as size decreases. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, matching the letterforms for consistent branding across headings and badges.
