A heavy display face with hand-drawn irregularity and a chiseled, faceted construction. Strokes are blocky and angular, with frequent wedge-like cuts, notched corners, and slightly wavering verticals that create an intentionally uneven rhythm. Counters are small and often polygonal, and joins tend to be sharp rather than rounded, giving many letters a carved, cut-paper silhouette. The overall texture is dense and bold, with subtle per-glyph width fluctuations that keep lines lively and slightly unruly.
Works best for short display settings such as posters, titles, headings, and punchy brand marks where its jagged texture can read clearly. It also fits thematic applications like fantasy or spooky events, game UI headings, and packaging that benefits from a hand-made, cutout look.
The font projects a playful, slightly spooky medieval flavor—more comic and mischievous than formal. Its jagged facets and uneven stance suggest hand-cut lettering for fantasy, horror-lite, or Halloween-adjacent themes, with an energetic, attention-grabbing presence.
Likely designed to mimic hand-carved or hand-cut lettering with a medieval/blackletter echo while staying bold and approachable. The intent appears to prioritize character and texture over strict regularity, creating a lively display face that feels crafted rather than mechanically typeset.
The sample text shows strong word-shape character and a distinctive, lumpy rhythm, but the dense forms and small counters make it better suited to larger sizes. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same carved, irregular logic, helping it feel consistent across mixed-case display settings.
