Summary:A system for preparing a knee may include a marking guide with a handle and a tibial marking portion extending from the handle. The handle may have a tibial alignment feature shaped to be aligned with a first corresponding feature of a tibia and a tibial marking guide shaped to guide motion of a marking instrument to provide, on the tibia, a tibial mark that identifies a tibial location at which a tibial component is to be placed on the tibia. The marking guide may further have a femoral marking portion with a femoral alignment feature shaped to align the femoral marking portion with the tibial marking portion and/or the tibial mark, and a femoral marking guide shaped to guide motion of a marking instrument to provide, on a femur, a femoral mark that identifies a femoral location at which a femoral component is to be placed on the femur.
