Sans Faceted Elte 5 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type, 'Celluloid JNL' by Jeff Levine, and 'Karnchang' by Jipatype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, slanted sans with sharply chamfered corners and faceted stroke endings that replace most curves with planar cuts. Letterforms are compact and forward-leaning, with broad, low-contrast strokes and squared counters that emphasize a cut-metal feel. The rhythm is tight and energetic, with consistently clipped terminals on diagonals and horizontals, creating a crisp, engineered texture across both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same angular construction, with strong silhouettes and minimal internal rounding.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, sports or esports identities, posters, packaging callouts, and logo lockups. It can work for subheads and UI labels when set large enough, but its dense, faceted forms are most effective in display contexts rather than extended reading.
The font communicates speed and force, projecting a competitive, action-oriented tone. Its faceted geometry and aggressive slant give it a technical, industrial edge that feels at home in high-energy branding and headline settings.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward motion, using faceted cuts to suggest machined surfaces and precision. The consistent chamfering and sturdy proportions prioritize bold presence and a distinctive, engineered voice.
The angled cuts are applied very consistently, producing strong silhouette recognition at display sizes. The forward slant and dense shapes create a dark typographic color, so generous spacing and larger sizes help preserve clarity in longer lines.
