Aromatic fiber is a generic term for wholly aromatic polyesters. By extension, aromatic carbon is a direct translation of 芳碳, so it can refer to Vectran carbon or aramid carbon. If it says aramid, you can ignore aromatic.

The only problem is on the official site where aramid carbon is used in the description, but "ARYL FIBER" is seen in the image below it.

This is the outer, which is Arylate and not Aramid. Loki and Yinhe make the same choice, Arylate/ALC for Outer/Viscaria clones, and Aramid/KLC for Inner/Long V clones.

Why do they do this? Is klc better suited for inner blade?
Loki, DHS, Yinhe and 729 does the same. I (wild) guess it's on purpose to have 2 clearly different models : one for control and spin, the other one for power and hits. "New" brands needs to have a clear range, with easy-to-chose models, to conquer market shares. And after that, they release in-the-middle blades, like Yinhe Pro 03 or DHS Hurricane Acb.

How is 729 inner klc blade? It never gets attention, but is it good?
