Looks like an old rosebud torch tip. Doubt it's worth anything.

14.1 ounce benzomatic propane fuel cylinder

Now as for the attachment, I'm gonna go with something for brazing or homemade bunsen burner

Grandfather had a bolt stuck in a bad spot. Look like a rig constructed to heat and beat.

Man I don't know. But if your grandparents were like mine there are a few points about that item that are possibilities:

It is modified or home made
It is not safe
It is not legal
When you figure out what it is you will say "WTF?!"

Likely a combination of all four.
decent looking Ag

Agree with this. The hose was to feed in O2 to control/increase flame temp.

I remember standing in front of a Dearborn in my grandmother's house - burning the skin off my face while icicles formed on my backside. Those were some heating machines.....

Was one of your grandparents a dermatologist? I'm pretty sure that is what the old timers used to get rid of skin tags.

Oh god!!! Old timers didn't need no dermatologist or fancy city doc. Just home remedy!

That's a refrigerant leak detector. You put the open end of the black hose over a possible leak, and the flame turns green if refrigerant is found.
