The present invention comprises a set of instruments and a method for their use in preparing a knee joint to receive knee implants. The inventive instruments and method are generally suitable for knee joint surgery. Furthermore, they include features that make them suitable for performing a minimally invasive knee surgery in which a smaller than normal incision is made and oriented. An illustrative set of instruments including an A/P sizer and femoral finishing guide for total knee arthroplasty and an associated minimally invasive technique are described.
