Dran Sword 3-60F (ドランソード3-60F, Doran Sōdo Surī Shikusutī Furatto; Dran Sword Three Sixty Flat) is an Attack Type Beyblade released by Takara Tomy. It was released as a Starter in Japan on June 10th, 2023 during the CoroCoro Spirit Festival for 1980円. Its regular retail release in Japan was on July 15th, 2023. It later debuted in western countries as Sword Dran 3-60F in a Starter Pack released by Hasbro for USD$9.99 in the United States.
In the manga, it was given to a young Jaxon Cross as a parting gift from his teacher; it originally had Metal Coat: Blue paint, although this gradually wore down over years into its current form. Khrome Ryugu also borrows this Bey for his match at the peak of The X, and later uses a replica bought from a store.
It is succeeded by Dran Dagger 4-60R.
