The Weldon style has a set screw flat that's angled toward the cutting end.
Tighten the set screw on it and the tool is forced upwards until the deeper end
of the flat contacts the side of the set screw. That makes the too resistant to
shifting axially, preventing loosening or shifting of tool length.
