Words with K and V in them go from 4 letters up to 15. Both letters have to appear in the same word, which rules out most of the dictionary and leaves a set small enough to be worth reading.
Nothing here beats HANDKERCHIEVES at 30 points in Scrabble and 31 in Words With Friends. KAVA is the shortest of them at 11 points in Scrabble, 12 in Words With Friends, which makes it the one to remember when there is barely any room left on the board.
Both scores accompany every word, and the shortest come first, so a word that fits the gap in front of you takes a moment to find.

FAQs
1What is the highest scoring word with K and V in it?
The highest scorer is HANDKERCHIEVES, which is worth 30 points in Scrabble, 31 in Words With Friends. That is what it earns on its own, and any bonus square it lands on multiplies the total further.
2How many points are K and V worth together?
Together the two letters come to 9 points in Scrabble and 10 points in Words With Friends. That is before the rest of the word is counted, so most words holding both finish on a much higher total.
3What is the longest word with K and V in it?
The longest is TALKATIVENESSES, which runs to 15 letters and scores 22 points in Scrabble. A word that size needs a stretch of open board, so it comes up far less than the shorter ones.
4What is the shortest word with K and V in it?
The shortest is KAVA, at 4 letters, alongside KIVA and KVAS. Words this small matter more than they look, because they still fit once the board has filled up and nothing longer will go anywhere.
