how old / dull is the blade on the chainsaw?

With a good sharp blade it takes me about 10 minutes to skin one, another 5 minutes or so to smooth it out with an angle grinder with a flap disc, and it's a nice smooth surface for drawing the design out. So about 15 minutes total and I'm ready to roll.

If it's a crappy blade it will feel like it's taking forever.
