Try to get a burr on your knife... A burr is a microscopic fold of metal on the edge of the knife like this image here:

It is necessary for any kind of scraping action with a knife.
Knife chatter is the sound that a knife makes when it scrapes over a rough patch of cane and "bounces". Chattering tends to happen if a knife has a bad edge, or it has a very thin blade.
For more info on sharpening, you can check these videos out:

P.S. You should try a Japanese ceramic water stone- I find them to be a lot more effective at taking off steel than India stones.
