Sans Faceted Ablog 8 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Laqonic 4F' by 4th february, 'Miguel De Northern' by Graphicxell, 'Posterman' by Mans Greback, and 'Merchanto' by Type Juice (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, compact display sans with chiseled, faceted construction in place of smooth curves. Strokes remain largely uniform in thickness, while corners and terminals are cut into small planar facets that create an octagonal, machined feel. Counters are tight and often squared-off, apertures are narrow, and the overall silhouette reads strongly vertical with dense rhythm in text. Uppercase forms are stout and geometric; lowercase shares the same angular logic, with simplified bowls and clipped joins; numerals are similarly block-formed with notched corners for consistency.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and team branding, packaging, and bold signage where the faceted silhouettes can read clearly. It can also work for logotypes and labels that benefit from a rugged, mechanical geometry, but is less appropriate for long-form text or small UI sizes due to tight counters and dense texture.
The faceted cuts and condensed heft give the font a tough, utilitarian tone that feels industrial and sport-oriented. Its sharp geometry suggests strength and impact, with a slightly retro poster/athletics flavor when set in all caps. In paragraphs it maintains an insistent, attention-grabbing voice rather than a quiet, editorial one.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while keeping a consistent, machined facet motif across the set. The goal reads as a bold, modern-industrial display voice that evokes athletic or utilitarian environments through angular cuts and squared counters.
The design relies on repeated corner chamfers and straight segments to unify the alphabet, producing a carved-metal impression. Tight internal spaces and strong verticals help it hold together at large sizes, while the notched details can start to merge if used too small or in low-resolution contexts.
