Stencil Fide 13 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Noah' by Fontfabric, 'Acherus Militant' by Horizon Type, and 'Anthro' by Studio Few (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with squared terminals and consistently thick strokes. Forms are built from simple circles and straight stems, then interrupted by frequent stencil breaks—most often as vertical cut-ins at the top and bottom of bowls and counters, and occasional horizontal notches. Curves are round and clean, while joins and diagonals stay crisp, producing a compact, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, with large open cuts that keep shapes legible while emphasizing the constructed, modular feel.
Well-suited to bold headlines, posters, and logo wordmarks where a technical or industrial voice is desired. It also fits product packaging, equipment labels, event graphics, and directional signage that benefits from a stenciled, fabricated aesthetic. In longer text blocks it functions best for short bursts—subheads, callouts, and display lines—where the cutout texture can be appreciated.
The overall tone is industrial and no-nonsense, evoking machinery markings, tactical equipment, and technical labeling. The repeated breaks add a rugged, fabricated character that feels purposeful rather than decorative, giving headlines an assertive, utilitarian presence.
The design appears intended to translate a robust geometric sans into a stencil-friendly construction, maintaining strong silhouettes while introducing consistent bridges for a manufactured, utilitarian look. The goal is clear impact and recognizability across a range of display contexts, especially those referencing tools, hardware, or engineered systems.
Stencil bridges are visually consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a strong systemized identity. The design reads best at medium to large sizes where the internal cutouts remain distinct; at smaller sizes the breaks can become a dominant texture. The lowercase is straightforward and compact, with a simple, workmanlike silhouette that pairs well with the font’s signage-like weight.
