Pulling off Rageblade on most champions that would use it really well is hard, with a possible exception of Nidalee because Cougar form. You have to be in melee range for quite some time (There aren't any ranged Hybrids unless you count Human Form Nidalee) to get it going.

Now, to stay in melee range for a long period of time, you have to be mean, lean, and built like a Season 2 Irelia. Granted, your ultimate gives you roughly the tankiness an Irelia might have, but you don't have that true damage and constant built-in healing. Additionally, you have to have that massive amount of Tenacity and items like Wit's End and Phage. it won't be easy to pull off, but I'd imagine that Evelynn might work well with Rageblade, but not as a jungler because the budget is still not that great.

@Neon - Late game Gunblade is a hallmark for late game APs in most cases simply because unlike DFG, it can have a really small down time while still scaling with your AP so it does good burst damage. In most cases, Evelynn will use Gunblade to burst faster, not so much for the chasing power (she can already chase just fine, but the slow IS helpful, I agree)
