The apparatus for cutting brick is an apparatus for cutting masonry material. The apparatus includes an assembly base, a lever operating assembly, an upper blade assembly, a lower blade assembly, and a table assembly. The lever operating assembly supports a system of levers allow an operator to apply a force which is ultimately applied to a pair of cutting chisels which cut the piece of masonry material. The apparatus may be comprised of two levers providing a force multiplier system. The upper chisel is moved by the lever operating system to separate the upper and lower chisel allowing material to be placed in the cutting apparatus, and to force the upper chisel towards the lower chisel to cut the material. The table assembly rests on resilient mounts. The table covers the lower chisel, but is lowered to expose the cutting edge of the chisel during a cutting operation.
