A knee joint prosthesis includes a femoral component and a tibial component. The femoral component includes a medial condylar articulation surface, a lateral condylar articulation surface and a central box therebetween, the central box being enclosed on a bone-facing side of the femoral component and open on a tibial-facing side of the femoral component. The tibial component including a medial tibial articulation surface, a lateral tibial articulation surface and a post therebetween, the post being disposed within the central box of the femoral component. A concave curved surface portion of the box travels along a convex curved surface portion of the post over a range of motion of the tibial component relative to the femoral component such that an axis of rotation of the box of the femoral component and the post of the tibial component is coincident over the range of motion.
