A stenciled display face with chunky, softly rounded strokes and conspicuous breaks that act as stencil bridges. The letterforms feel hand-cut rather than mechanically drafted: curves are slightly lumpy, terminals vary, and counters often appear as punched-out shapes with small notches. Proportions are lively and somewhat inconsistent across the set, with a rhythmic wobble in stems and bowls that keeps the texture energetic in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals share the same cutout logic, with clear internal gaps and occasional asymmetry that reinforces the handmade look.
Well suited to posters, titles, and short bursts of text where the stencil texture can be a primary design feature. It can work effectively for packaging, event graphics, signage, or brand marks that want a rugged, hand-made industrial feel, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone lands between utilitarian and mischievous—suggesting industrial marking or tactical labeling, but with a crafty, DIY warmth. The irregular cuts and rounded ink-like edges give it a gritty, street-level personality rather than a pristine military stencil.
Likely designed to evoke classic stencil construction while softening it with hand-cut irregularity and rounded, ink-like massing. The intent appears to prioritize expressive texture and immediate recognizability over strict geometric uniformity.
Stencil breaks are frequent and fairly bold, which creates strong visual patterning at larger sizes but can fragment small details in longer text. The font’s charm comes from its deliberate unevenness, so it reads best when the goal is texture and attitude rather than typographic neutrality.
