Smite Support
So... seems impractical to build support items and jg items, but is it worth it for the bonus %10 hp?

The only time I've done it is for blitz. It is hilarious when people think they are safe behind minions only to have that minion smote during the pull animation. I wouldn't get a jungle item though because you can't get a support item with it.
You actually can't build a jungle item and a support item.
There is a description in the tooltip that says "Limited to 1 gold income or Jungle item"
As for Stalker's Blade: Cinderhulk being a viable support item. ..
I feel as though you are really going to be missing out on the amount of gold that support items provide. You can make up for the sustain by entering the jungle. You can also gain some gold, sustain, and bonus exp from clearing an occasional camp, but you may end up leaving your ADC vulnerable.
Your jungle item will not turn into a warding item. I actually liked this idea when Tracker's Knife was still in the game for this reason. The lack of vision control otherwise is a huge loss for you and your teammates, .... or at least it should be. If it isn't you need to be warding more as a support.
If you just want Smite for the bonus damage, and the bonus slow, .. It could be useful.
If you are mostly wanting the bonus health, ... I don't think it really is justified unless you are going full health tank.
WTF
actually its 15% XD, but otherwise the others are right on their assessment
