A heavy slab-serif stencil with broad proportions and compact counters. The letterforms are built from blunt, rectilinear shapes with softened/bracket-like transitions and consistent stencil breaks that create clear bridges through bowls and stems. Terminals are squared and sturdy, with a slightly uneven, cutout rhythm that reads like punched or painted lettering. Numerals and capitals feel especially strong and poster-ready, while the lowercase maintains a stout, workmanlike texture with simple, robust construction.
Best suited to display applications where the stencil texture can be read clearly—posters, headlines, labels, packaging, and signage. It also works well for themed branding that needs an industrial or military-marking flavor, and for short bursts of text where bold recognition matters more than continuous long-form readability.
The overall tone is utilitarian and tough, evoking industrial marking, military stenciling, and vintage shipping-crate typography. Its mass and interrupted strokes project authority and grit, giving text a bold, functional presence rather than a refined or delicate voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic stencil look with maximum punch: big slabs, simple geometry, and consistent bridges that suggest practical reproduction methods like spraying, stamping, or die-cutting. The emphasis is on impactful silhouettes and a rugged, utilitarian voice for themed and attention-grabbing typography.
Stencil interruptions are frequent and highly visible, becoming a defining texture at display sizes. Spacing and rhythm emphasize solid black shapes and high impact, with distinctive internal breaks in rounded letters that enhance the “cut” aesthetic.
