I do find the metal needles slippery, yeah. It's part of why I don't like them; the bamboo or birch ones grip a lot better, are lighter, and are less poky on the ends if you are a knitter who will occasionally push the needle that way. And they feel nice in your hands.
Also I have this weird thing (since I was a kid) where I absolutely despise the smell of metal on my hands and avoid it whenever possible, but that is probably not a consideration. *g*
