A kit for centering proximally an implant within a canal formed in a femur is provided. The kit includes a cutter apparatus adapted to form a reference in a resected surface of the femur and a guide adapted to support the implant and formed for extension into the reference to align the implant within the canal. The cutter apparatus includes a body formed to include first and second ends and teeth extending from the second end. The teeth are positioned in a pre-determined pattern to form the reference when the cutter apparatus is moved relative to the femur. In addition, the guide includes a handle, a clamp coupled to the handle and formed with jaws adapted to engage the implant, and an extension extending from at least one of the jaws. The extension is received within the reference to align the implant within the canal.
