Of the THIRTEEN dwarves that set out along with Bilbo Baggins on the Quest of Erebor, three died in the Battle of the Five Armies: Fili, Kili, and Thorin Oakenshield.
The other 10 dwarves were:
Dwalin, Balin, Dori, Nori, Ori, Oin, Gloin, Bifur, Bofur, and Bombur.
In the 1977 animated movie version of The Hobbit, only 6 of the dwarves live. I forget which though. One thing I'm certain of: Fili, Kili, and Thorin die in both the book and the animated movie. However, only Fili, Kili, and Thorin die in the book.
In J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," Thorin Oakenshield, Fili, and Kili are the three dwarves who die in the Battle of the Five Armies. They perish while defending their homeland and fighting against the goblins and Wargs.
Tolkien provides many descriptions of the dwarves in The Hobbit, so here are a few:
The Dwarves as they first appear at Bilbo's house:
" It was a dwarf with a blue beard tucked into a golden belt, very bright eyes under his dark-green hood."- The Hobbit
The Dwarves arrayed for battle:
" Each one of his folk was clad in a hauberk of steel mail that hung to his knees, and his legs were covered with hose of a fine and flexible metal mesh.... In battle they wielded heavy two-handed mattocks; but each of them had also a short broad sword at his side and a roundshield slung at his back. Their beards were forked and plaited and thrust into their belts. Their caps were of iron and they were shod with iron, and their faces were grim."- The Hobbit
The "Hobbit" does not say what exact weapons each of the dwarves carried on their journey, bit more than likely some of them carried axes and some swords.
Answer: Mostly axes and swords.
