Sans Faceted Egky 4 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Mako' by Deltatype, 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype, 'Brodaers' by Trustha, and 'Herokid' by W Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, forward-slanted display sans with sharp, faceted construction in place of smooth curves. Strokes are thick and uniform, with clipped corners and planar cuts that create a chiseled, mechanical silhouette. Counters are compact and often polygonal, and many forms show wedge-like terminals and notches that emphasize motion. Letter widths vary noticeably, giving the alphabet a punchy, irregular rhythm while maintaining consistent cap height and a sturdy baseline presence.
Best used for headlines, posters, and branding where a bold, energetic voice is needed. It fits sports graphics, gaming and esports identities, action-themed packaging, and punchy logo types. Use generous size and spacing when clarity is critical, particularly in all-caps settings.
The overall tone is forceful and kinetic, reading as fast, tough, and attention-seeking. Its faceted angles suggest machinery and armor, while the italic slant adds urgency and action. The result feels well suited to high-impact, competitive, or battle-ready messaging rather than calm, neutral text.
The type appears designed to deliver maximum impact through mass, slant, and faceted geometry, replacing traditional curves with hard-edged cuts to project speed and toughness. Its variable letter widths and distinctive angular detailing prioritize character and presence over quiet neutrality.
The design’s tight internal spaces and dense mass can cause counters to close up at small sizes, especially in letters with enclosed shapes and in numerals. Distinctive angled joins and cut-in details help differentiate similar forms, but the strong slant and heavy weight favor short bursts of text over extended reading.
