I've been trying to come up with a way to somehow "supercharge" a hemalurgic spike, but reusing them on multiple donors doesn't seem to be likely.

Can you reuse a spike?
Brandon Sanderson
Yes. Uh, yes, technically, but not as easily as that question makes it sound.

Can you re-use it if it's for the same exact thing or for a different thing? Will that change?
Brandon Sanderson
Spikes are going to get keyed by Identity--

So you can't already spike that person. But if you spike and don't kill them can you spike the same person again?
Brandon Sanderson
Yeah and if you can somehow strip the identity of the person or the spike-- So yes you can use them again but it comes into a sort of-- Like, you can't just take that spike and spike somebody else.
It might be possible to reuse a spike on multiple donors if store their Identity, but that seems unlikely for multiple reasons.
But what if you use feruchemy in a different way to enhance your hemalurgic gains?
What if you tap, for example, the strength of ten men, then use hemalurgic iron take that enhanced attribute? Would you be able to get that attribute enhanced, or would only the regular, non enhanced piece of spiritweb stick to the spike?
