The side facing the pilot is the face. The side away from the pilot is the

The curved side of the blade is called the "back" or "cambered side".
The flat side is called the "face" or "thrust side". The back
usually doesn't get many nicks in it.
I get more dings in the back (the side facing the pilot) than I ever
get in the front.
