Well, there's just no indication the Rivendell Elves
had anything comparable to the cloaks, which were said to have been personally woven by Galadriel and her "maidens".
As for weapons, Rivendell probably didn't have anything more suitable for hobbit-hands than what Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin already possessed.
Maybe they used the same type of ropes as did Lórien, but according to Sam they had no rope in Moria because they hadn't
asked for any! Maybe Elrond just wanted to hear the old, universal "magic word".
