R. Falk Cohen (died 1834, also known as Philip Kohner), a Bohemian Torah scholar active during the first half of the 19th century, served as Rabbi of the Plzeň and the Klatovy districts. He exchanged halachic correspondence with leading contemporary Torah scholars: the Nodah BiYehuda, R. Bezalel Ronsburg, R. Elazar Löw, author of Shemen Rokeach and R. Shmuel Kauder. In a responsum addressed to R. Falk Cohen (Responsa Nodah BiYehuda, Even HaEzer Tinyana, Section 67), the Nodah BiYehuda writes: "The Cohen whose opinion is worthy…my friend, the great luminary, sharp and well-versed, R. Falk HaCohen…".
