A dense, blackletter-influenced display serif with heavy, blocky proportions and sharply chamfered corners. Strokes are predominantly straight and vertical, with clipped, faceted joins that create an engraved, cut-from-metal feel rather than smooth curves. Terminals frequently end in small forks or spur-like wedges, and many glyphs show mid-stem nicks that add texture and rhythm. Counters are compact and geometric (notably in O/0 and B), and the overall construction favors strong verticals with controlled, angular diagonals.
Best suited to high-impact applications such as posters, headlines, event graphics, and brand marks where a strong, vintage-forward presence is desired. It can work well for signage-style layouts, product packaging, and sports or western-themed identities, especially when set with generous tracking and ample whitespace.
The font conveys a rugged, heritage tone—equal parts old poster, saloon signage, and team identity. Its crisp facets and spurred terminals add a bold, declarative voice that feels traditional, tough, and slightly ornamental without becoming delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, instantly recognizable display voice built from faceted, spurred forms. By combining compact counters with angular carving and forked terminals, it aims to evoke historical signage and strong emblem typography while staying legible in short lines and titles.
The figures and uppercase are particularly emblematic and sign-like, with octagonal/rounded-rect counters and consistent corner clipping that helps maintain clarity at large sizes. Lowercase retains the same chiseled logic, producing a cohesive texture in words while remaining emphatically display-oriented.
