I would say I am not a collector
I have not read about him or noted his cues while online shopping. The second edition of the Billiard Cue Bluebook is available on-line as a pdf. You might look for his name. If he's big then he should be in there. Jim Odom made it into the Third edition, but he's actually pretty much a nobody outside of Texas. Makes a mean cue if you can find a late one.
The only reason I've had the last thirty years to visit Vegas . . .

Also, no Kent Davis . . .

I think Jerry Mcworter is better

Eddie Cohen studied under the tutelage of both Kent . . .
. . . and Ariel. Is his work collectible?
Absolutely
Have you met him yet or seen the work he does ? It is absolutely amazing what his artistic capabilities are. He is currently no longer accepting orders as far as I know and the wait time is several years. He has been taking best of show at several Super B...
My snooker partner knows Eddie . . .
. . . and has had his snooker shaft(s) made (or restored) by him. I've seen YouTube clips of his operation; he's invested heavily into his machinery.
I speculate not many cuemakers get $10K for a brand new cue
Except for Berry, TAD, Ginacue, Southwest,...Eddie is in that rare level that can get $10K for his brand new cues and he's turning away customers!
Oh I found someone who knows
Apparently Kent Davis is a criminal. There's more than a few guys ripped off by him. He's disconnected his telephone numbers. ...
Sad . . .
. . . but not unheard of with small outfits; sometimes they encounter circumstances they can't weather, others use funds from client A to finish product for client B. 😞
