A lively, hand-rendered display face with bold, inked letterforms cut through by a narrow inline channel that reads like a carved highlight. Strokes are irregular and brushy, with ragged terminals, occasional sharp spikes, and visible texture that suggests quick marker or dry-brush pressure changes. Curves are rounded but slightly lopsided, counters are generous, and the overall rhythm is intentionally uneven, giving the alphabet a handmade, animated feel. Numerals and capitals maintain the same scratch-cut inline detail, with varying stroke endings that add motion and grit.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, covers, event flyers, packaging callouts, and branding accents where texture is a feature. It can also work for playful horror or comic-themed titles and signage-style headlines, but the distressed detailing may reduce clarity at small sizes or in dense paragraphs.
The font conveys a rebellious, street-art energy—part punk flyer, part spooky-cartoon title card. Its rough texture and cut-in highlight create a dramatic, slightly mischievous tone that feels loud and informal rather than refined or corporate.
The design appears intended to merge a bold display silhouette with an inline incised effect and gritty brush texture, creating a high-impact, handmade look that feels energetic and imperfect by choice.
The inline cut tends to track along the stroke direction, creating a consistent engraved/outlined shimmer that stays visible in both straight stems and rounded bowls. Because the edges are intentionally rough and the shapes are quirky, it reads best when allowed ample size and breathing room.
