A cutting apparatus to cut a coating of an optical fiber includes a body having a hole formed therein to insert the fiber and a cutting device to cut the coating of the fiber. When the fiber is inserted in the hole, the cutting apparatus may be disposed around the fiber in a first state and a second state. In the first state, the apparatus is disposed rotatably around a longitudinal axis of the tight buffered fiber. In the second state, rotational movement of the apparatus around the longitudinal axis of fiber is blocked and the apparatus is disposed movably in a longitudinal direction to cut the coating of the fiber by the cutting device.
