Commonly found three variants of the "K" (top-sensitive), in order of frequency:

• The leg joins the other diagonal before reaching the drum (the majority of the most common fonts like Arial )
• The two diagonals meet at the same level in the drum (a number of common fonts such as Futura , Gill Sans , etc.).
• The two diagonals form a junction before the horizontal shaft (very few fonts like Adam BP Cordal, etc..).

One finds these same three variants for the "k" (low-to-case) with a fourth track where the diagonal of the top forms a loop.
