"Among experts, the name Dr. Karl-Ferdinand Schaedler connotes sound, pragmatic opinions on items of tribal art from those regions which have fostered his spirit of scientific research since the 1960s and which he has visited time and time again. His expertise is backed not only by specialized knowledge of his subject but also by an in-depth knowledge of the people and the individual countries...

"He has an exceptionally wide range of expertise. The knowledge gained over numerous decades about traditions and rituals, crafts and culture, regional differences and the linking of all these details, well-established practical experience at trade fairs and auctions as well as a degree in ethnology made this inquisitive man a sought-after expert who has had an influence on many museum staff, researchers and ethnologists over the decades." - p. 18.
