Skiver Font
Author's note
Skiver, by Spadefonts, is a free eroded caps display font with a rough, hand-cut feel. The letters look hacked from soft material, with chunky strokes, wobbling edges, and bite-like notches that give the whole font a raw, slightly tribal rhythm rather than a neat distressed finish.
That makes this free font a natural pick for horror posters, underground music flyers, zine covers, game title cards, and short branding where the letters need to feel scraped and unruly. It works best in brief lines, big headers, and monogram-like initials, because the heavy, scarred shapes carry the mood on their own.
