After reading Erin`s post, it reminded me I have had similar situations on wet bathroom floors. The tip will simply slide making it easy for you to fall.

I also remembered that when the tip was new it had some sore of thread that provided better grip on wet floors. But after 2 months or so of usage, the thread wore out.

I decided to replaced it. This is what I did. I took a GOOD knife and CAREFULLY cut patterns on the tip, pretty much like a pizza.

Do not go too deep 2mm (millimeters) should be more than enough.

I tested my NEW tip on a wet muddy floor, with no slide.

Oh course use common sense and don`t put all your trust on the cane, but this new thread will sure provide a better grip. I hope it can help some one.
