Black Sheaf

Black Sheaf font by G. Meade is a free distorted display font with a scratchy, hand-cut feel. Its jagged strokes and uneven rhythm look brushed in thick black ink, giving headlines a raw, slightly feral energy that feels more handmade than digital.

Using Black Sheaf works beautifully for album covers, horror flyers, fantasy book jackets, zines, skate graphics, Halloween merch, and indie game titles. Keep it big so the rough edges stay crisp, and pair this free font with a quiet sans serif when you need supporting text.
