Sans Faceted Ufke 5 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Double Back' by Comicraft, 'Evanston Alehouse' and 'Refinery' by Kimmy Design, and 'Brionsen' by Novitype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with corners cut into crisp chamfers, replacing curves with short planar facets. Strokes are uniformly thick and squared-off, producing compact counters and strong, rectilinear silhouettes. The uppercase forms read as sturdy and modular, while the lowercase keeps the same engineered logic with simplified bowls and notched terminals. Numerals are similarly squared and segmented, maintaining consistent weight and a tightly controlled, poster-ready texture.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, team or event branding, and bold packaging callouts. The sharp, faceted shapes also translate well to game interfaces and title screens where a strong, mechanical voice is desired.
The faceted construction and massy proportions give the font a tough, utilitarian tone that feels industrial and sport-forward. Its angular cuts suggest machinery, uniforms, and arcade-era display lettering, projecting strength and urgency rather than softness or elegance.
Likely designed as a display face that converts traditional sans letterforms into a rugged, chamfered system, emphasizing durability and punch. The consistent notching and planar edges appear intended to evoke cut steel or stencil-cut signage while keeping a straightforward, readable skeleton.
The chamfer pattern is applied consistently across joins and outer corners, creating a rhythmic “cut metal” look. Small interior spaces and blunt terminals increase impact at display sizes, while the overall geometry stays clean and legible despite the deliberately compressed counters.
