I personally like the Evils a lot and the Assassin is not bad either. The Evil is not as strong as the Assassin.

The Assassin has a very strong barnyard smell and flavor, definitely not for everyone...

With that said, the problem I have with Gurkha is consistency. Some of them are good and others from the same box can be bad. The construction on nearly all of them leaves a lot to be desired.

Pretty much every line I've had has had some kind of burn problem. Some run, some unravel and I had one Genghis Khan that actually blew up almost like it had a novelty charge in it.

The only lines I have not had burn problems on are the Shaggys and the Dargonfires; both have a shaggy foot.
