Shikiman

Shikiman font by MJType is a free brush font. It stands out with dry-brush strokes that shred through the letterforms—frayed edges, inky ridges, and streaky gaps that feel hand-slashed, not scripted. The caps sit a little wild and uneven, giving headlines a raw, kinetic punch without slipping into chaos.

Using Shikiman, you get instant attitude for gig posters, streetwear logos, horror titles, skate zines, snack packaging, and YouTube thumbnails. The rhythm is fast and spiky, so short words hit hardest, especially at large sizes. For balance, pair this free font with a clean condensed sans for subheads or captions to let the texture take center stage.
