    FTP to your site, or login via dashboard. Locate wp-content/themes/k2/searchform.php and change it there:

    <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="<?php esc_attr_e('Search &raquo;', 'k2_domain'); ?>" />

    According to K2 sidebar.php:

    <div id="search"><h4><?php _e('Search','k2_domain'); ?></h4>
		<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>
	</div>

    This is in searchform.php so that's the place where it should be.

    I went and searched the entire theme and the only place where you're able to change this was indeed the searchform.php. What I would like to know if you're making the changes via FTP wp-content/themes/k2/searchform.php directly or via Dashboard? The reason why is that sometimes if your WordPress theme files aren't with the correct file permissions you won't be able to save the changes directly from there and FTP would be your best bet. Now the very last resource that I can think of is to update this from your /languages/k2.pot folder.

    #: ../searchform.php:5
msgid "Search &raquo;"
msgstr ""

    To open k2.pot you'll need plain text editor i.e. Notepad or similar.
