From The Song of Swords

Dragonslicer, Dragonslicer, how d'you slay?
Reaching for the heart in behind the scales,
Dragonslicer, Dragonslicer, where do you stay?
In the belly of the giant that my Blade impales.

Dragonslicer's Characteristics:

Identifying Hilt Mark: Stylized dragon.
Power: Kills dragons.
Sound Made When Activated: Shrilling.
Trivia: First appears in the hands of the Dragonslayer, Nestor, First Book of Swords.
Disadvantages: Does not protect the wielder from death while engaging dragons.

Dragonslicer is not treated in a separate tale. It makes appearances in the original books of Swords, and particularly in the First Book of Swords. I recommend the First Book of Swords, Second Book of Swords, and Third Book of Swords to gain a more complete understanding. Also, Prince Zoltan used Dragonslicer to great effect in The First Book of Lost Swords: Woundhealer's Story.
