The invention relates to a cigarette cutter for cutting cigarettes. The cigarette cutter includes a housing assembly with a base portion and sidewall portion surrounding the base portion that together form a cavity wherein the base portion is coupled to a spring assembly and the spring assembly is coupled to a plunger assembly through a guide rail. The plunger assembly includes a base plate coupled to a cutter assembly that includes a blade that extends a distance from the base of the plunger assembly. In addition, formed along the sidewall portion is an aperture and coupled with the aperture is a cigarette receiving plate for receiving a cigarette and the receiving plate includes a groove or slot that runs vertical to the cigarette. The plunger when compressed extends the blade through the aperture and through the cigarette and to the bottom of the groove or through the slot so as to provide a clean cigarette cut. Once the plunger is released, the recoil of the spring assembly causes the plunge assembly to return to its normal position.
