the top metal one

 

I Change my vote. Just pull it off with your finger, but make sure you push the key caps around it really hard so they come off too(with or without part of the switch!)

I also think its impossible to do by had with out damaging all the keys around it. The only ones that are possible are the escape and f keys, and the arrow keys.

 

I replaced all the keycaps on my Corsair K95 RGB by hand, though those keycaps are raised and more accessible than keys that are recessed in the rest of the base.  Completely depends on the keyboard you're working with.
