Gunblade and Trinity Force are the 2 best items for damage on him. It gives him everything he needs in 2 items. Not a fan of pure AP very much but it could be used under certain circumstances due to having incredible burst especially with Lich Bane and the huge amount of MR his ult would provide for 9 seconds.

For boots, Ninja Tabi/Merc. Treads depending on the situation. Berserker's Greaves is also a possibility but it's not one I go for.

Defensively, Jax loves max HP. Warmog's is a good item on him, as is Rylai's/Frozen Mallet if you're not using Trinity Force for whatever reason (I think it's the perfect item for him). Guardian Angel is also a fantastic general defensive option on Jax. Jax is an amazing duelist and cause plenty of havoc when he revives with his AoE stun and lifesteal/spellvamp and huge single-target burst.

I suggest top-laning (Starting either Cloth+5 pots, Doran Blade, or Doran Shield depending on matchup) and going for the level sequence of E Q to start then maxing R > W > Q > E. If you jungle, start with Vamp. Scepter and E W W Q attempting to gank as soon as you get level 4 and red. His ganks are very good but he relies on them.
