I'm looking for a leather OWB open carry holster for a USP .45.

Everything I've seen so far is geared towards conceal carry, high ride and canted forward.

Anything out there with more of a straight drop and maybe a little lower?
 
Have you looked at duty holsters? They would ride lower and most are straight drop.

While I'm not much of a fan of retention holsters, if I were open carrying I think that would be a good idea.
 
The other option, if you don't want retention, are competition/training holsters.

Davis Leather has both duty and competition (Gunsite and Omega) holsters http://davisleathercompany.com

Tauris has some straight drop http://www.taurisholsters.com

Milt Sparks has the 1AT, though it's not on their website

Mernickle has their PS6LR (Low Ride) and their Wild Bunch holsters http://www.mernickleholsters.com

Black Hills has some options https://blackhillsleather.com

Rafter L has their #5 and #6 holsters http://www.combatgunleather.com/holsters

Lobo Gun Leather has their Combat Classic http://lobogunleather.com/owb-outside-the-waist-band/combat-classic/
 
A lot of guys have no problems walking around open carrying with holsters with just friction retention.

I personally wouldn't do this, for the same reason that no law enforcement officers do this (gun grabs).
