All wooden scales made by TommyWho are hardwoods and far more durable than you give them credit for. If too slippery, rough them up with sandpaper. If too rough, smooth them up with sandpaper. Here and there treat them with some oil or wax. Is that easy. These scales will perform well in wet or dry. It can't get any better than that.
Rough micarta is OK I guess, but with some usage it'll feel like used diaper. Besides, contour of Becker scales provides all the grip you'll ever need.

Beckers are just like Jeep Wranglers. Even when fully loaded, leather seats and such, don't be afraid to take them off-road. That's what they were build for. Otherwise you're better off with crossover.

Just my $0.02...

I agree with this... I use what tommy uses and recommends - Tung oil. Almost makes them water repellent. Believe me your timber scales will stand the test of time and will look great. I honestly don't find them slippery at all, but I have large hands as well. I have Tommys scales on lots of my blades.
