Razori (; in older sources also Rozore) is a small clustered village on the right bank of Horjulščica Creek (a.k.a. Horjulka Creek) near Dobrova in the Municipality of Dobrova–Polhov Gradec in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

==Name== Razori was first mentioned in written records in 1736 as ex Rosor, and later as ex Rosora (in 1745) and ex Raſsorie (in 1747). In the past it was known as Rosore in German. The name Razori is a plural form of the common noun razor 'dead furrow'. The name probably does not refer to agricultural activity, but is instead metaphorical, referring to split or fissured terrain.
