Does VA allows 100% equity  Cash-Out on Refinances for Kentucky VA Mortgages?

Yes is the simple answer, but a lot of VA lenders will only go to 90%, so be careful shopping out there for quotes and qualifying info.

VA allows Kentucky VA Mortgage holders and veterans to finance 100% of the purchase price of a home, but they also allow Kentucky VA Mortgage veterans to take cash-out up to 100% of the value of their home! You are still subject to the funding fee unless disabled, and the cash out maybe limited in hand depending on your credit score.
